Bug Hog Holds National Sales Meeting, Introduces New Products

Bush Hog Inc., a division of the Alamo Group, recently held its 61st National Sales Meeting in Prattville, AL. This years’ event occurred June 21st and 22nd at the Marriott Prattville Hotel and Conference Center at Capital Hill located adjacent to the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail.

The annual meeting brings the Company’s sales team together in order to introduce new products and sales programs for the upcoming year. Also, and more importantly, it provides “a time to share our vision for the upcoming year” said Jerry Worthington, Bush Hog’s President. “We are proud of our entire team. We look forward to Bush Hog experiencing growth and success as we move forward!”

At this years’ event, several new products were introduced, including the 2215 and 4815 Flex-Wing rotary cutters. The model 2215 is designed to cut weeds, grasses and brush up to 3 1/2” in diameter. It is recommended for use in pasture maintenance, crop shredding, and roadside maintenance. The model 4815 is designed to cut weeds, grasses and brush up to 4 1/2" in diameter.

Also introduced were Zero-Turn mowers, backhoes, wood chippers, log grapples, log splitters, and RTX Tillers. “It is crucial that part of our continued growth is new product development,” stated Marc Ivey, Bush Hog’s Product Development Manager. “We must continue to grow our core product line of rotary cutters, while seeking to diversify with gap products such as these in order to compete in our ever changing marketplace,” continued Ivey.

During the annual awards banquet Rick Raborn, Executive Vice President of the Alamo Ag Division, applauded the efforts of the entire team. “The Bush Hog workforce has been dedicated and committed since the Alamo Group’s acquisition in 2009! We are proud to have Bush Hog as part of the Alamo Group.”

In 2016, Bush Hog celebrates 65 years of market leadership in rotary cutters and tractor attachments. The company has been located in Selma, Alabama since its inception.
