As we embark on our 60th year in business, we at Groff Tractor have seen our business evolve over the years from a single store operation in Highspire, PA, to fifteen locations that cover the Mid Atlantic region. Our newly formed Groff Tractor Holdings, LLC, is now the parent company that oversees the operations of both the original Groff Tractor & Equipment in Pennsylvania and the newly formed GTNJ/GTMA and CC&T. The latter is comprised of the acquisitions made over the last few years of Trico Equipment, Folcomer Equipment, and most recently, CC&T. We have aligned ourselves into two distinct standalone operating entities with dedicated local management, allowing us to bring the decision making as close to our customers as possible. Nonetheless, our goal remains the same—striving to be our customers’ #1 choice for all of their equipment needs, by providing best-in-class customer service. I want to personally thank all of those who contributed to making this milestone a reality: Our Valued Customers. We strive every day to be a valuable business partner to our customers by providing profitable solutions to their problems and backing them up with legendary product support. They are the total reason we exist, and they are the focal point of every decision we make. Our Employees. Our hardworking, dedicated, and focused employees are the backbone that supports our customers and creates the Groff brand. Their willingness to do whatever it takes to support our customers on a daily basis is what allows our company to continue to grow and prosper. Our Business Partners. Our great manufacturers, lending institutions, attorneys, software, and accounting firms continue to provide our company with valuable support. They give us the freedom and opportunity to take care of our customers by helping us provide solutions. While we enjoy this milestone in celebrating our 60th year, we are also working hard to ensure that the Groff brand will continue to thrive and support our customers for another 60 years—as Your #1 Source for Everything Under Construction.

Our History

60 YEARS

For the past 60 years, the mission of Groff Tractor has been the same: to serve our customers in the best way possible.

A lot has changed since 1958, but one thing that remains the same is our commitment to our customers. Ray Groff opened Groff Tractor as a CASE dealer in Highspire, Pennsylvania, employing only a handful of people. Over time, the business has grown, and now over 250 full time employees work at fifteen dealerships that provide equipment and services across four states. Over the years, Groff has developed strong relationships with our manufacturers and has consistently offered a wide range of the highest quality construction equipment. Groff is one of the leading CASE construction dealers in the country and supplements their CASE products with some of the other leading manufacturers in the world. Lasting six decades in the construction industry may not always have been easy, but regardless of the circumstances, Groff Tractor has always powered through, thanks to the knowledge and commitment of our wonderful employees. Groff Tractor’s employees are at the heart of our dealerships and work tirelessly each day to make sure our customers’ needs are met. Many of our employees have been a part of the Groff Tractor family for many years. Most notably, Bob Eppley and John Morrison have both worked for Groff Tractor for nearly forty years.

As we look ahead into our next decade, we are excited and optimistic for the future of our brand. Groff Tractor looks forward to continuing to serve our customers and foster a family friendly environment for our wonderful employees.

“ The Groff Mission, with its dedication to their customers and employees, has made the last fourteen years some of the greatest of my life, and I look forward to many more.” ­—Jeff Hood, Director of Key Accounts since 2004

“ Time flies, but it has been a very enjoyable thirty-eight years working with excellent ownership and fellow employees and building relationships with some great customers.” — John Morrison, Product Support Manager since 1980 “ I have been very fortunate during my career at Groff Tractor to work with so many employees who CARE. I truly believe it is the reason Groff has been able to succeed and experience such growth. To work with employees who care about the success of the company, who are committed to building strong relationships with our customers and suppliers, and who care about the professional and personal success of one another has been a very rewarding experience.” —Steve Weikert, General Manager since 2002

“ Thirteen years ago, I came to Groff Tractor with over twenty years of mechanical experience in various fields, but very little of it was in construction equipment repair. I’m very thankful that Groff Tractor gave me the opportunity and provided the manufacturer training that enabled me to get up to speed quickly. Throughout the years, I’ve had the pleasure of building working relationships with many of our business partners. They have relied on me to meet their repair needs, and I have relied on Groff Tractor to provide me the ‘tools’ to be there for our customers. One of the best tools is the extensive support from our various manufacturers.” — George Hixson, Field Service Technician since 2004

Groff Tractor is truly a family environment.” — Corey Berkheimer, Regional Sales Director since 2002 “Working for Groff Tractor has been the most rewarding job of my entire career. I have seen many positive changes companywide over my years of employment, and it is a great feeling knowing that every day I get to do something I enjoy and can be proud of. I work with a fantastic team, and working together, we achieve our goals. The direct leadership over me has been very encouraging, positive, and truly the best, and that makes for a lasting impression.” —Melissa Myers, Executive Assistant since 2008

Celebrating partnership United. Inspired.

Congratulations on 60 years ... and many more to come. When a supplier is a true partner, it makes all the difference. And like Groff Tractor, we’re committed to supporting you with hydraulic attachments that perform.

WHAT’S IN A NAME? FOCUS ON YOU Throughout its history, Atlas Copco has been committed to delivering the highest-quality solutions, service and expertise. We will continue to strive to be your strongest partner in productivity as “Epiroc.”

Congratulations to Groff Tractor On 60 Years of Success SALES SALES

Atlas Copco has transformed from one world-class company into two: Atlas Copco and a new company named Epiroc — your source for mining, infrastructure and natural resources equipment. The name comes from Greek and Latin roots meaning “at the rock,” reflecting our dedicated industry focus, proximity to the people we serve, and strength of our relationships. While Atlas Copco remains focused on industrial customers, mining and civil engineering companies can rely on Epiroc for drill rigs, drilling tools, hydraulic attachments and services.
