Fendt

The Fendt story began in Marktoberdorf, Bavaria, Germany, originating from the humble beginnings of the Fendt family’s blacksmith workshop. In 1928, Hermann Fendt ingeniously crafted the inaugural "dieselross" – a moniker playfully referring to a diesel-powered machine – within his father’s shop, repurposing a stationary engine and a discarded mower. This pioneering Dieselross rapidly gained recognition as a practical and effective tractor, fueling the company’s expansion throughout the 1930s and 40s, establishing Fendt as a prominent name in agricultural machinery. Driven by a commitment to groundbreaking advancements, notably the revolutionary Vario transmission and the robust Xylon chassis, Fendt consistently propelled itself forward. A significant milestone arrived in 1997 when Fendt joined the AGCO family of brands.
