Brandt Tractor acquires Wallace Equipment

Aug. 12, 2013 – Brandt Tractor has announced its acquisition of Wallace Equipment of Fredericton, N.B. This acquisition marks Brandt’s first presence in Atlantic
Canada and establishes Brandt as a nation-wide company with 27 branches
reaching from coast to coast.

Wallace Equipment is the John Deere Construction and Forestry Dealer for
Atlantic Canada, which includes New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward
Island. Wallace operates five branches located in Fredericton, Moncton,
Bathurst, Halifax and Sydney.
Building on Wallace’s 20-year history, the company's plan is to invest in product support
initiatives to better support customer needs.

This acquisition is significant to their customers for several reasons: Brandt
brings to Atlantic Canada its 80-years of customer service experience and its
reputation for doing whatever it takes to help customers succeed; Brant’s
unique understanding of customer challenges within a variety of industry
categories including construction, forestry and resource sectors enable us to
offer timely, cost-effective solutions; Brandt will invest in new product
support initiatives to better meet customer needs; this acquisition enables
Brandt to better meet the needs of national customers who operate equipment
across the country.

Effective July 2, 2013, the Wallace Equipment name will change to Brandt
Tractor.

“We’re very excited about this latest addition to Brandt and all the potential
it represents. We’re confident our expanded team and fortified expertise will
help fuel our new nation-wide commitment to delivering value to our customers,
every day,” said Shaun Semple, Brandt Tractor president.
