Construction has started at RDO Equipment Co.'s second location in the Phoenix area. On Jan. 29, team members gathered for an informal groundbreaking ceremony. The new store is located on Interstate 10, south of 202, and is expected to open in early 2017.

Like the current RDO Equipment Co. location in central Phoenix, this new location will sell and support John Deere construction equipment.

“The new store in Chandler furthers our commitment to our customers and allows us to expand our overall services and product support capabilities in an expanding market. We look forward to growing our close-knit team into an additional location and continuing to serve the Phoenix community for many years to come,” said Dennis Howard, vice president of Southwest Construction.

Founded in 1968, RDO Equipment Co. sells and supports agriculture, construction, environmental, positioning, surveying and irrigation equipment from manufacturers including John Deere, Vermeer, and Topcon. With more than 75 locations across the United States, including partnerships in Russia, Ukraine and Australia, RDO Equipment Co. is a total solutions provider.
