H & H Farm Machine Co.

What H & H Farm Machine Co. does

H&H Farm Machine Co. is a privately held, founder-owned custom sprayer manufacturer established in 1978 and based in Monroe, North Carolina. The company designs, fabricates, and services build-to-order sprayers for a broad set of agricultural and adjacent applications — including Christmas tree, vineyard, vegetable, turf and sod, nursery, pasture, poultry sanitation, DOT vegetation management, landscaping, and construction — using brand-name components from suppliers such as TeeJet, Banjo, Hypro, Raven, Udor, Honda, and Tifone. Its product portfolio spans custom sprayer systems (medium pressure pulls, skids, nurse tanks, tracking wagons, truck-mounted units), a parts department distributing pumps, nozzles, spray guns, valves, tanks, and strainers from more than a dozen authorized brand lines, and a service department staffed by OEM-certified technicians. H&H also holds an authorized-source relationship with Italian manufacturer Tifone, distributing its sprayers, pumps, valves, and nozzles into the U.S. market.

The business operates on a direct-sales and trade-show-led go-to-market model, with the company participating in regional industry events such as the NC Christmas Tree Association, NC Winegrowers, Virginia Vineyards, NC Tomato Growers, and the Eastern Winery Exposition, alongside a Facebook page and email newsletter for direct customer engagement. Revenue is generated through three streams: one-time sales of custom-built sprayers, one-time parts sales, and professional service and repair. Brian Nance is identified as owner. With 1-10 employees, no institutional investors, no parent company, and no public listings, H&H is structured as a small, independent regional manufacturer with multi-decade tenure in its niche, sustained by repeat customer relationships, an unusually broad authorized-dealer parts catalog, and certified post-sale service capabilities rather than by scale, technology differentiation, or external capital.
