AGCO opened an expanded parts distribution center in Visalia, California, USA. The new facility increases the range of parts, stocked for customers across the western United States.
Located in the heart of West Coast agriculture, the modern facility replaces AGCO’s existing location and is designed to improve parts availability, accelerate delivery times and strengthen service across the western United States.
“We reimagined every step of how parts move, from receiving to shipping, and built the systems to match, including advanced automation, smarter forecasting and a deeper local inventory,” said Stefan Caspari, Senior Vice President, customer success and North American Ag, AGCO. “For our customers, this means more of the parts they need are on the shelf and closer to home, giving greater confidence that the right part will be there when it matters most.”
The new distribution more than doubles the size of AGCO’s operation in the region. Expanded stocking capacity, advanced warehouse automation and improved forecasting will enable AGCO to stock a broader range of high-demand parts closer to customers. Strategically located in California’s Central Valley, the center will support dealers and farmers across the western United States and AGCO’s full brand portfolio, including Massey Ferguson and Fendt.
AGCO designed the operation from the ground up, leveraging advanced storage systems, specialized material handling equipment and digital infrastructure to support the region’s needs. The facility features vertical lift modules; high-density, narrow-aisle racking; dedicated storage for oversized components; rooftop solar power; and electric vehicle charging stations.
The Visalia project took shape over four years of network analysis, design and collaboration across AGCO’s global organization, making it one of the most advanced parts facilities in the company.
