Groff Tractor acquires Murphy Tractor locations

Groff Tractor & Equipment (GT&E) acquired two Murphy Tractor & Equipment locations in western Pennsylvania.

According to Groff Tractor, the purchase of Murphy Tractor’s locations in Delmont and Harmony, Pennsylvania – plus the recent acquisition of Plasterer Equipment’s four locations in Lebanon, Bethlehem, Sellersville and Lewisberry, Pennsylvania – increases its presence to six John Deere Construction & Forestry locations throughout the Keystone State.

“The foundation and legacy of Groff Tractor was established in central Pennsylvania in 1958, and we expanded into the western [Pennsylvania] market 25 years ago,” says Mike Savastio, president and CEO of Groff Tractor. “We have been a dealer for Wirtgen America since 2006, and we take great pride in our ability to service the asphalt paving, milling, compaction and material processing segment of the industry in our territory.

“With this acquisition, we will now unite the [John] Deere Construction & Forestry and Wirtgen America product lines together in the region, and will help further expand our ability to offer western [Pennsylvania] customers state-of-the-art equipment solutions backed by GT&E’s best-in-class product support,” he adds.

Savastio says the two new locations will be rebranded as Groff Tractor dealerships. Murphy Tractor employees will be integrated with the Groff Tractor team.

Groff Tractor is headquartered in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.
