John Deere has appointed Armin Fritz Landtechnik as its new sales and service partner for the Austrian region of Carinthia (Kärnten), strengthening the manufacturer’s dealer network in one of the country’s key agricultural areas. The agreement expands John Deere’s local market coverage while ensuring continued sales, aftersales support and technical service availability for customers across the region.
