The values and vision of New Holland's founders are the beating heart of the brand to this day, as it celebrates 125 years at the farmers' side, providing the support they needed at all times, constantly investing and innovating so they would have the products, technologies, and services to farm efficiently, sustainably and profitably.
Carlo Lambro, Brand President of New Holland Agriculture stated, "New Holland has a rich heritage started in a small town of Pennsylva and has grown to be a global brand with presence across 170 countries. It is a history marked by important innovations that have changed agriculture. It brings together the unique legacy of brands such as Ford, Fiat, Braud and Claeys. Most important of all, it is a history marked by people: our customers, our dealers, our employees, day after day, year after year. Together, we are facing the many challenges of agriculture, helping farmers get the job done, efficiently and profitably, and get the best from their business."
New Holland is the farmer's partner for every season - for good times and challenging times: "We are living in extraordinary circumstances that are changing how we live and work in ways we could never have imagined," he added.
"This situation has highlighted the vital role of agriculture and brought to the attention of the public how important farmers are in their life. Agriculture has reacted to the crisis with strength, successfully ensuring the food supply without disruption in the face of exceptional difficulties. And New Holland has remained at the farmers' side throughout, providing the support they needed. We continue to invest in the future, and we will make the most of the possibilities of new technologies, connectivity, automation and alternative fuels - working together towards sustainable agriculture. As we celebrate our 125th anniversary, at this unprecedented moment in history, we look to the future with confidence."
New Holland's history: our legacy of innovation
New Holland was founded by agricultural pioneers whose rich legacy lives on in the values that drive the brand today. Abe Zimmerman who understood the importance of meeting customer needs with simple solutions and reliable support and whose small machining company founded in New Holland, Pennsylva in 1895 would one day grow into a worldwide brand; Henry Ford, who had the visionary aim to make innovation and mechsation accessible to all and produced the world's first mass tractor in 1917; Giovanni Agnelli who saw how a solution developed for a specific local need could be extended to provide farmers across the world a smart solution with easy-to-use, innovative machines, demonstrating its first Fiat tractor in 1918; Leon Claeys, who dedicated his specialist knowledge to making farmers' lives easier and led to the first European self-propelled combine harvester in 1952.
One hundred and twenty-five years on, New Holland remains a reliable, open, and responsive, innovative, and sustainable partner to farmers across the world.
