What Lodermeier’s does
Lodermeier's Inc. is a privately held, family-owned farm and grain equipment dealer founded November 1, 1947 by Leonard Lodermeier and his brothers in Goodhue, Minnesota. The company operates from a single consolidated facility at 38241 County 6 Blvd in Goodhue (relocated there on August 14, 2017 after 70 years downtown) and serves farmers, livestock operations, rural property owners, and commercial/industrial customers primarily in Southeast Minnesota, with project work extending into Wisconsin (Eau Claire, Bay City). With approximately 25-30 employees organized across sales, service, parts, crane operations, and office functions, Lodermeier's is now in its third generation of family ownership under Brent Lodermeier, Tyler Lodermeier, and Dustin Luhman, with Richard Lodermeier serving as Director of Operations.
The company's product surface spans four interconnected lines: (1) Farm and Construction Equipment as an authorized dealer for AGCO brands (Massey Ferguson, Versatile, Gleaner), Bobcat, and Kawasaki, offering new and used tractors, combines, sprayers, UTVs/ATVs, and attachments; (2) Grain Equipment as a full-line dealer for Brock grain bins (up to 1.94M bushel commercial capacity), Mathews Company and GSI/Zimmerman grain dryers (up to 12,000 bu/hr), Shivvers drying systems, and Westfield portable augers, including custom design, millwright installation, and remote dryer monitoring via Pinnacle 20/20 controls and M-C Trax; (3) Power Equipment covering Massey Ferguson compact and utility tractors, Ferris and Bobcat zero-turn mowers, and Echo outdoor power equipment; and (4) Building Construction including livestock buildings, commercial structures, shops/storage/garages, and remodel/repair work, building on a Butler Manufacturing partnership dating to 1963. Underlying technology includes the PTx Trimble precision farming platform for mixed-fleet guidance and data management and the CDK Global MyDealer customer portal for online parts ordering, service scheduling, and account management.
Lodermeier's monetizes through seven primary revenue streams: one-time equipment sales (new and used), one-time parts sales (OEM AGCO and Bobcat parts via in-store, phone, and online portal), transaction-fee service and repair both in-shop and on-farm (including tiered Uptime inspections ranging $249-$649), one-time grain equipment design-build-installation projects, one-time building construction contracts, usage-based equipment rentals (manure spreaders, drills, loaders, tractors with daily/hourly/acre rates), and transaction-fee NCCCO-certified crane services up to 60-ton capacity. The company offers financing through at least eight preferred partners including AGCO Finance, AgDirect, AgStar Financial, DLL Finance, Farm Credit Services of America, Sheffield Financial, Stearns Bank, and the Farm Service Agency. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via the Goodhue showroom, on-farm service visits, online parts portal, and rental operations, with marketing concentrated on community events, KCUE radio harvest broadcasts, customer appreciation days, FFA partnerships, and an email newsletter. Awards include the 2023 AGCO Aftersales Pro Award, granted to only ~11% of AGCO dealers.
