AGCO, the manuufacturer has signed a four-year agreement with Mitas to supply Continental and Mitas-branded farm tyres to Fendt, Massey Ferguson, Valtra, Challenger and Laverda branded tractors and combines for their plants in Germany, Finland, France and Italy starting in 2013.
\n<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is an extension of an existing agreement,\u201d said Andrew Mabin, Mitas\u2019 marketing and sales director. Mitas has been supplying Fendt tractors with tyres since 2004, when Mitas acquired the Continental farm tyre manufacturing division.<\/p>\n
The contract extension follows a recent award made by AGCO to Mitas. AGCO awarded its highest supplier rating \u201cA\u201d to Mitas for deliveries of farm tyres from January to December 2012. The Mitas-produced Continental is a standard fitment in four out of six model series, for example, Fendt 924-930 Vario. The award pertains to quality, logistics, customer service and protection of the environment, for all of which Mitas received the highest grade. Mitas has received the overall \u201cA\u201d grade annually since 2004.<\/p>\n
\u201cMitas\u2019 core business is agricultural and industrial tyres,\u201d Mabin said. \u201cThis allows Mitas to pay close attention to detail and reliability.\u201d Mitas sales to AGCO increased 10 percent in 2012 compared with 2011.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
