MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. — Ziegler CAT is pleased to announce the opening of a new sales and parts facility in Willmar, Minn. The new 5,360 sq. ft. facility will offer a selection of compact construction and ag equipment. The location will also bring Ziegler parts and service support closer to the surrounding area. It will open on April 20, 2015, and will be located at 2987 Hwy 12 West.

A full inventory of parts and maintenance items for Cat construction equipment, AGCO ag equipment, and LEXION combines, as well as hydraulic hose rebuilding capabilities, will be available. A daily shuttle system will connect the Willmar facility with Ziegler’s 26 other locations, providing unmatched parts availability. Ziegler fulfills 98.6 percent of all parts orders within 24 hours. The facility will also enable Ziegler Resident Field Service Technicians in the Willmar area to provide fast and efficient service at customer locations.
