PITTSBORO — Quality Equipment, a John Deere dealer group based in North Carolina, opened a new location in Pittsboro on Monday.
Located at 1243 Thompson St. — at the old Ford dealership — Quality Equipment Pittsboro will bring nine new jobs to the area by serving the equipment needs of local residents, farms, and commercial businesses closer to home.
Quality Equipment had previously served Pittsboro from its nearest locations in Fuquay-Varina, Burlington, Durham and Carthage.
“Quality Equipment LLC is excited to open a store in Pittsboro and to increase service to Chatham County and its surrounding area,” said CEO Bryan Dobson. “Our local staff looks forward to providing our customers with professional equipment, parts, and service support from a location more convenient than ever to their homes, businesses, and recreational hobbies.”
The dealership plans to host a grand opening at a later date, in order to introduce the store and staff to their new community.
Quality Equipment sells agricultural, residential and compact construction equipment, as well as products from Stihl, Honda Power Equipment, and several other allied brands.
“We are proud to represent John Deere and other leading brands,” said COO Greg Morgan. “Our dealership is focused on providing our customers with quality equipment, reliable parts and service support, and an excellent customer experience. Our goal is to create value for our customers and local communities by providing solutions using a partnership approach.”
Quality Equipment sells new John Deere equipment, used equipment, parts and merchandise, and service for residential, agricultural, and compact construction equipment. Stores can transfer equipment and parts to one another overnight, making it easier for customers to get what they need, faster.
Now with 28 locations, Quality Equipment serves much of North Carolina, from Charlotte and Greensboro to the coast. The dealership group also has one Virginia store, located in Chesapeake. Its headquarters are located in Fuquay-Varina, and it employs approximately 525 employees. In addition to Dobson and Morgan, the company leadership includes Stan Bowers (CFO), James Lucas (Aftermarket Director), and Brian Ellington (Sales Director).
