Location: West Plains, Mo.
Owners: Scott and Krystal Brown
History: Lynch Equipment Co. LLC opened its doors in 1994, becoming a KIOTI dealer in 1997.
Scott and Krystal Brown bought the business in 2008. Scott had worked for the previous owners before the purchase.
Today, Lynch Equipment has five full-time employees to serve customers.
Products and Services: In addition to a broad line of KIOTI tractors, Lynch Equipment also offers Land Pride implements, Ferris and Snapper Pro commercial zero-turn mowers, Scag mowers, Snapper residential lawnmowers, and Tanaka string trimmers and leaf blowers.
“We are really happy with the brands we offer,” owner Krystal Brown said.
Smaller tractors, Krystal said, are the biggest sellers for the KIOTI line.
“Somewhere between the 35 and 45 h.p., tractors are the biggest sellers because farms around here aren’t as big as they once were,” she said.
In addition to new equipment, customers are also welcome to peruse Lynch Equipment’s used inventory.
Lynch Equipment has a full service department, offering service for not only the products they sell but many other lines of tractors and equipment.
“We offer service and parts for all the lines we sell, and we can get after market parts for other brands as well,” Krystal said.
Business Philosophy: Being a small company, having a good reputation is critical. The Browns and all employees of Lynch Equipment strive to give all customers a good experience.
“We pride ourselves in trying to make sure everyone is taken care of. We can’t always jump on something immediately, but we try to get to everyone as soon as we can,” Krystal said.
Krystal also encouraged buyers to shop locally because money spent in the community stays in the community.
“We love it when people shop local when they can, and we hope they continue to shop locally,” she said.
