RDO Equipment Co., Fargo, N.D., recently opened a new store in Williston, N.D. Customers near Williston, which is located in the northwest part of the state, were previously served by RDO's Minot, N.D., location, nearly three hours away. Because of the distance, RDO decided to build the Williston facility.“A store in Williston makes us more competitive and ultimately allows us to better-serve our customers there,” said Jon Markle, RDO Equipment's general manager of Minot and Williston.

The Williston store will feature sales, parts, and service functionality, as well as be a service outlet for Vermeer Sales & Service and RDO Truck Center. RDO now has 55 John Deere and Vermeer dealership locations.
