NAEDA Names 2015 Award Winners

The North American Equipment Dealers Association (NAEDA) announced last week recipients of its 2015 Dealer’s Choice and Gold Level service awards for 2015. The annual awards honor manufacturers who receive exemplary ratings in twelve categories addressed in NAEDA’s Dealer-Manufacturer Relations Survey.

Vermeer won the distinguished Dealer’s Choice Award from NAEDA.

Receiving Gold Level Awards were Great Plains, Kuhn, Landoll, Landpride, MacDon, and Woods. Companies designated as Gold Level receive exceptionally high aggregate scores compared to manufacturers in their respective categories.

“The NAEDA Dealer-Manufacturer Relations Survey is one of the most important services the association provides its members and the industry,” notes Gail Halderman, Chairman of NAEDA’s Member Services Committee. “This year’s survey experienced a significant increase in dealer input as we received more than 6,000 manufacturer ratings. We are extremely pleased with the level of participation and proud of the benefit this survey provides.”

The 2015 results are based on surveys in four manufacturer classifications: shortline, tractor, OPE, and full line. Joe Dykes, Director of Membership Services for NAEDA, said 17 shortline manufacturers received the minimum number of dealer ratings to be included in the report.
