The rise and fall of Minneapolis-Moline

Minneapolis-Moline dates back to the Candee & Swan Plow Company of Moline, Illinois, founded in 1865. It became Moline Plow Company (later, Moline Implement Company), a major Midwestern producer of tilling equipment: plows, harrows and other tools for sowing grain crops.  The Minneapolis Threshing Company began in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, in 1874, and settled in Hopkins, Minnesota, in 1887. It concentrated on equipment for the last stage of small grain production: threshing.  Minneapolis Steel and Machinery Company, founded in 1902, began by making heavy construction equipment and steam engines, then moved into vehicles, including tractors (the Twin City line, 1912) and buses. Its chief executive, Warren C. MacFarlane, engineered the 1929 merger of the three companies and became president. The merger produced a company that served farming tasks year-round: tilling, planting, weeding, harvesting and processing. Such integration was needed to compete with industrial giants like John De

Archery range, workshop and beer: Massive Princess Auto flagship does more than tools and equipment

Hundreds of people crowded together and cheered Tuesday morning for the grand opening of Princess Auto's massive new flagship in Winnipeg — a store the company says marks "a significant evolution" in the shopping experience. The celebration began with a chain cutting ceremony before the shoppers — some spent all night waiting — were invited through the doors at 7 a.m. The 105,000-square-foot store at 500 Panet Rd. is the biggest of Princess Auto's 59 stores across the country. It's been under construction for 18 months and based on Tuesday's turnout, a lot of people have been anxious for it. Chris Pellerin showed up at 6:40 a.m. and estimated there were 500 people in front of him. "I'm [at Princess Auto] almost every week, resupplying tools for our shop. So, you know, this is kind of a pivotal moment in time for me and for the company. It's great to see it." The first person in line arrived at 8 p.m. Monday night, said senior vice-president Heather Turnbull-Smith, who pulled in at

Industry Shares Comments on CNH’s Color-Mixing of its Dealer Network

The recent move by CNH to further align the Case IH and New Holland organizations—often referred to as the "purpling" of the brands—has generated significant discussion throughout the dealer network. While many details remain unclear, NAEDA sees both opportunities and challenges associated with this strategy. On May 11, 2026, Ag Equipment Intelligence learned of CNH’s layoffs and a reorganization for a combined management authority over BOTH the New Holland and Case IH dealer networks. A brief mention of the CNH leadership reorganization around a consolidating of the brand oversight was reported in Ag Equipment Intelligence, in its May 15, 2026 newsletter.  A week later, several at this week's Ag Equipment Intelligence Executive Summit described it as a “purpling” of the organization known for its New Holland (blue) and Case IH (red) colors. Another update was provided in the May 25, 2026 episode of Ag Equipment Intelligence’s On The Record broadcast.  It was big news for a company
