Industrial side of
company booming
Zurich -based C.G. Farm Sup-
plies is the only supplier of Case
industrial equipment such as back -
hoes and crawlers in Huron Coun-
ty. And business is booming.
"The spurt started about three
years ago, and has snowballed. It
is grill building, and looks good
for another year", said owner
Cleave Gingcrich. Salesman Paul
Steckle does a fantastic job. We
do most business in London, but
Paul sells as. far away as Kitchener
and Wiarton."
Gingcrich started his business in
1962 on the Goshen south of Eu-
rope, moving to Zurich's main
street in 1985. He is assisted by
wife Margaret, sons Rick and
Cliff,and daughter and son-in-law
Marlene and Dennis Estep. In ati-
dilion to Steckle, the company em-
ploys mechanics Keh Gingerich
and Jim Ramer and truck driver Al
Becker.
C.G. Farm Supplies was one of
400 North American dealers to lose
the franchise for Case tractors three
years ago. He now stocks White
and Zetor tractors. This summer he
will be adding White diesel garden
tractors in 16, 18 and 21 -
horsepower models. Attachments
will allow customers to cut their
grass, till their gardens, or blow the
snow in their driveways.
, The- service department is a very
important -component of the dealer-
ship, Gingcrich said. Estep and his
wife have won a trip to Florida for
going 40 percent over the stated
wholesale and retail objectives in a
first-time parts promotion spon-
sored by Case.
The recently acquired Computer,
which. is connected directly to the
Case plant, -has greatly speeded de-
livery of orders. It also provides a
daily update on the business.
