CRYSTAL LAKE, ILLINOIS, U.S. — Mathews Company (M-C) announced on May 4 that OOO AGROTEHKOMPLEKT (ATK), located in Rostov-on-Don, Russia, has been established as an authorized dealer for genuine M-C grain dryers and genuine M-C parts in Russia. ATK supplies agricultural machinery and equipment from leading Russian and foreign brands.
 
“ATK’s commitment to offering brands that use the latest agricultural technologies coupled with providing mandatory technical training is just the type of dealer Mathews Company seeks,” said Joseph Shulfer, president of Mathews Company. In order to become an authorized dealer, ATK attended intensive training at the Mathews Company manufacturing facility. “It is important to us that our dealers understand not only the mechanical side of our equipment, but also understand how the technology works and how the information it provides the user can be used to gain the most efficiency to maximize profit.”

 
“M-C dealers are factory-trained and are the only ones able to purchase equipment from Mathews Company’s only manufacturing facility, located in the United States. Quality is important to us and there may be other ‘look-a-like’ machines that say they are M-C, when in fact, they are not,” said Shulfer.
