Linder Expands its Kubota Dealer Network with the Purchase of Southern Tractor & Outdoors

Linder Industrial Machinery Company has acquired Southern Tractor & Outdoors. The
three branches in southwest Georgia, Leesburg, Moultrie, and Valdosta, will be re-
branded as Linder Turf & Tractor branches, joining our growing network of Kubota
dealerships across the southeast.
“We are fortunate to have developed a close relationship with the owners of Southern
Tractor & Outdoors,” says John Coughlin, President and CEO of Linder Industrial
Machinery Company. “This has been a well-run company for many years; we are
excited to offer our additional product lines to the people of southwest Georgia.”
Mike Horne, owner of Southern Tractor & Outdoors, says, “We are eager for this
opportunity with Linder. Everyone we’ve worked with at the company has been
exceptional; this is a great move for the people in our community.”  
The Linder Turf & Tractor locations in Georgia will add a range of BOMAG machines
and Deutz-Fahr tractors to a lineup that already features a large selection of Kubota and
Land Pride equipment.
Linder Turf & Tractor, an elite Kubota dealer, now has seven locations:
 Bradenton, Florida
 Leesburg, Georgia
 Moultrie, Georgia
 Valdosta, Georgia
 Fayetteville, North Carolina
 Greensboro, North Carolina
 Greenville, North Carolina

Established in 1953, Linder Industrial Machinery sells heavy equipment in Florida and
the Carolinas. Linder is one of the largest Komatsu dealers in the United States and
sells, services, and offers parts for other top manufacturers, BOMAG, Terramac, ATLAS,
Mantsinen, FECON, and several others from our 22 locations. 
Linder created the Linder Turf & Tractor division in 2018 by purchasing a Kubota
dealership in Florida, then shortly after that, two in North Carolina, and in 2023 added a
Fayetteville branch.
