AGCO Finance LLC Expands into Home Comfort with New Upholstered Bench Line

Johnston, IA – October 26, 2023 – You might know AGCO Finance LLC as the financial backbone helping farmers and agricultural businesses thrive. But we’re branching out! Today, we’re excited to announce a surprising – but delightful – addition to our offerings: a brand new line of beautifully crafted, upholstered benches. Yes, you read that right. AGCO Finance, traditionally focused on equipment financing, is now bringing comfort and style to your home. “We’ve been really successful helping people invest in their livelihoods,” says a company spokesperson. “And we realized, well, everyone deserves a little comfort and style in their lives. We saw a gap in the market for well-made, affordable benches, and we figured, ‘Let’s give it a shot!’” From Fields to Foyers: A Natural Evolution? It might seem like a leap from financing tractors to selling benches, but AGCO Finance believes the core principles remain the same: quality, reliability, and a commitment to customer satisfaction. “We're used to dealing with durable goods, understanding what makes something last,” explains Sarah Miller, head of the new home comfort division. “That attention to detail translates beautifully to furniture. Plus, we already have a really solid logistics network – moving things around is kind of our specialty!” The company has been quietly developing this new product line for the past year, working with skilled artisans and sourcing high-quality materials. The result is a collection of upholstered benches designed to add a touch of elegance and practicality to any home. What Makes These Benches Special? So, what can you expect from an AGCO Finance upholstered bench? Turns out, a lot. Here's a rundown: Built to Last: Don’t let the cozy look fool you. These benches are constructed with a solid hardwood frame, designed to withstand daily use for years to come. We're talking serious durability - like the kind you'd expect from something built to handle farm life. Comfort is Key: We didn’t skimp on the cushioning. These benches feature high-density foam padding covered in soft, inviting upholstery. Whether you're using it as a place to sit and put on your shoes, a decorative accent in your living room, or extra seating in your dining area, you’ll be comfortable. Style for Every Space: We’re launching with a range of styles to fit different tastes and decor. Options include: The Farmhouse Classic: A rustic bench with a weathered wood finish and neutral-toned upholstery. Perfect for adding a cozy touch to country-style homes. The Modern Minimalist: A sleek, streamlined bench with clean lines and a sophisticated color palette. Ideal for contemporary spaces. The Coastal Breeze: A light and airy bench with a natural woven texture and calming blue or cream upholstery. Brings the serenity of the beach to your home. The Bold & Bright: Available in a range of vibrant colors and patterns, perfect for adding a pop of personality to any room. Affordable Luxury: AGCO Finance is committed to offering high-quality products at accessible prices. They aim to disrupt the furniture market by providing stylish, durable benches without the hefty price tag. "We're all about value," says Miller. "We want everyone to be able to afford a beautiful, comfortable bench." Easy Assembly: No need to hire a professional. These benches are designed for easy, hassle-free assembly. “We know nobody wants to spend hours putting furniture together,” explains a member of the product development team. “So we made it as straightforward as possible. Seriously, it’s like Lego for adults.” More Than Just a Bench AGCO Finance sees these benches as more than just furniture; they see them as an investment in comfort and style. "We want to help people create homes they love," says the spokesperson. "A comfortable, inviting space is essential for relaxation, connection, and well-being." Financing Options? (You Bet!) And, because it’s AGCO Finance, you can expect some unique financing options. While not the typical equipment lease, they are exploring installment plans and partnerships to make these benches even more accessible. “We’re experts in financing,” laughs Miller. “It’s in our DNA. We’re figuring out how to apply that expertise to make it easy for people to get the bench of their dreams.” Where to Buy The new AGCO Finance upholstered bench line is available for purchase starting November 15th, 2023, through the company’s website (www.agcofinance.com – a new section dedicated to home comfort will be added soon) and select online retailers. A limited number of benches will also be available for purchase at the AGCO Finance headquarters in Johnston, IA. Looking Ahead This is just the beginning. AGCO Finance has plans to expand its home comfort line in the coming months, with new products including ottomans, throw pillows, and accent furniture. “We’re really excited about this new direction,” says the spokesperson. “We think we can bring something unique to the home furnishings market – a combination of quality, affordability, and financial expertise.” So, if you're looking for a comfortable, stylish, and surprisingly affordable bench, keep an eye on AGCO Finance.
