WINTER PARK, FL — Everglades Equipment Group, a John Deere dealer in Florida, announces the acquisition of a new dealership in Winter Park, Florida. Formerly a Sunbelt Lawn and Tractor, this addition marks Everglades Equipment Group's 19th dealership across South and Central Florida.
The new dealership will continue to offer a full range of John Deere equipment, parts, and service to meet the needs of commercial, construction, governmental, and residential customers in the Sanford, Oviedo, and Winter Park areas.
"This acquisition is a significant step in our continued growth and commitment to providing exceptional service to our customers," said Mike Schlechter, CEO and President of Everglades Equipment Group. "We are excited to expand our presence in the North Orlando area and better serve the needs of our growing customer base."
"I believe this acquisition will increase our market awareness and enhance customer satisfaction for Everglades Equipment Group," said Rafael Lara, Central Florida Sales Manager at Everglades Equipment Group. "We have a strong customer base in North Orlando that we haven't been able to service to Everglades standards. Acquiring Sunbelt allows us to better serve our commercial, construction, and governmental customers in this area."
