MIKE: You have money and I don’t, but I know how to sell and completely satisfy my customers. We need to go into business selling tractors. KIOTI tractors.
LARRY: KIOTI? Never heard of them.
MIKE: Yep. and twenty years ago, no one had heard of Hyundai either.
LARRY: Good point.
That’s about it. Larry Stovesand Equipment in Murfreesboro, Tennessee incorporated on January 1, 2015. With fifteen tractors in stock, and only three employees: Mike Schramke, Jim Wilcox, and Jason Buchanan, they started what can only be described as a rocket ship. It took just three years to become the world’s largest selling KIOTI Dealer. That was 2018, and LSE has yet to relinquish that crown.
