Farm equipment manufacturing opportunity
Planet Jr. seed sowing machines were important tools for
American vegetable, herb, and flower growers for over 90 years. The
brand changed ownership several times, presently in the hands of
Powell Manufacturing Co. in South Carolina. Over the last few years
there were various quality problems in the seeders that Powell was
making, and we stopped selling them except on special order, though
we continue to offer spare parts.
Powell has, apparently, recently come into hard times, and
the assets, including the Planet Jr. brand, are going to be
auctioned by sealed bid on August 15. We have reverence for
properly made Planet Jr. seeders, they would enjoy a strong market
in my opinion, and we would dearly love to see somebody pick up this
opportunity. Johnny's would be first in line to become your
customer.
Are you experienced in manufacturing, iron casting, machine
tool work or the like and looking for a new opportunity? Somebody
you know, maybe? I suspect that Planet Jr. could be had for a
screaming bargain. This link has the information --
