The FWEDA board of directors has ratified a membership vote to merge with AED. The merger is expected to be finalized by the end of August, FWEDA said. Joani Woelfel, president and CEO of FWEDA, said that FWEDA will be dissolved as it merges with AED.
The Far West Equipment Dealers Assn. (FWEDA) Board of Directors voted May 15 to finalize a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between FWEDA and the Associated Equipment Distributors (AED) detailing the terms of a merger between the two associations. The merger requires approval from FWEDA members.
The Far West Equipment Dealers Association (FWEDA) selected Tim Robinson, director of Agriculture for Arizona Caterpillar dealer Empire Southwest, as the 2021 Presidents Award recipient during its annual conference, Nov. 10-12 in Monterey, Calif.
FWEDA Chairman Craig Kleindl, director of pricing at RDO, says dealer members felt the decision was rushed and some of their concerns weren’t addressed.
The joint boards of the FarWest Equipment Dealers Assn. (FWEDA) and Western Equipment Dealers Assn. (WEDA) have voted to move forward with a proposal that would consolidate the two associations.
