Mechanical Engineering Industry:
Like owner, like tractor


At Valtra they tell the tale of a salesman who spent an entire afternoon and evening putting the final touches to the sale of a tractor at a farm. The model and accessories had been chosen, but the farmer and his wife were still debating the tractor's colour around midnight. The wife wanted white, the farmer blue. At this stage the salesman made the final suggestion: "We'll make the right half of the tractor white and the left half blue."

Unlike the other major tractor manufacturers, Valtra Inc. customizes its tractors to meet the customer's needs and wishes. The basis of the choice is the range of modules, which makes half a million combinations in features and accessories possible for the most popular models.

For example, choosing your own colour for a tractor that is enscribed with your name is unique in the world of work tools. Valtra's customers are welcome to visit the plant to follow the completion of their own tractor, which can also be done on the Internet. Customer-responsiveness operates in many ways.
