You can join one of our farm equipment dealer 20 Groups by submitting a 20 Group application or emailing us at [email protected]. We will ask you for more information about your business, like the industry, location, size, and history, which we use to match you with a 20 Group with similar, like-minded members.
Your 20 Group will decide on the location for each meeting. Many of our farm equipment dealer 20 Groups decide to meet in a member’s city so that the group can visit the hosting company’s location and review their operation in person. Other groups may decide to meet in destination locations and bring their families.
