Lännen Tractors Oy is pleased to announce the signing of an exclusive distribution agreement with Akershus Traktor A/S for the Norwegian market. The agreement covers the full range of Lännen and Lundberg multipurpose machines, including specialized Lännen multipurpose backhoe loaders for railway maintenance and line construction.
This partnership marks a significant milestone for Lännen Tractors, as Norway represents a highly promising market for its versatile and robust machine solutions. Akershus Traktor is a well-established and respected nationwide operator in Norway, whose strong market presence and expertise provide an excellent foundation for expanding the reach of Lännen and Lundberg products.
Founded in 1988, Akershus Traktor A/S is one of Norway’s leading agricultural machinery dealers. The company operates through a wide network of branches and partners across the country, employs approximately 200 professionals, and reported a turnover of over NOK 1.42 billion in 2022. Akershus Traktor represents several renowned brands, including Valtra, Pöttinger, Giant, Kuhn, and Hardi, and is headquartered in Jessheim. The company is part of the BR Industrier Group, which employs around 1,000 people across various industrial sectors.
To support the start-up of the Lännen and Lundberg businesses, Akershus Traktor A/S will initially engage three sales representatives, one of whom will focus specifically on Lännen Rail and Line machinery. The import will be carried out through Akershus Traktor's subsidiary company AT Import A/S, which has the import of machinery and equipment for Akershus Traktor as its core business.
Lännen Tractors Oy warmly welcomes Akershus Traktor to its international distributor network and looks forward to a successful collaboration in developing the Norwegian market.
