Fairchild Equipment has signed a dealer agreement with Polaris to represent Polaris’ GEM and Pro XD utility task vehicle (UTV) lines of commercial vehicles.
While Fairchild Equipment has been a trusted Taylor-Dunn distributor for many years, this new agreement expands the dealer’s territory from their Green Bay, Marinette, and Stevens Point, Wisconsin, branches to the entire states of Wisconsin, Minnesota, and North Dakota as well as Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and northern Illinois.
“We are very excited to partner with Polaris given the breadth of their product portfolio and the value of their name and market presence,” said Fairchild Equipment’s President Van Clarkson. “It gives us access to products and customers in markets we don’t play in today, and having it cover our entire trade area made sense for both parties. I know our team is excited to start selling products and parts, and servicing existing Polaris customers immediately!”
“We are proud to have Fairchild Equipment in our dealer network and excited for our customers that they are expanding their offerings to include Polaris GEM and Pro XD vehicles,” said Jamie Juliano, director of sales North America, Polaris Commercial. “We appreciate that Fairchild Equipment provides customers with a one-stop-shop by focusing on customer training, service, and post-sales support above and beyond the team’s product line knowledge and sales.”
Polaris GEMs are all-electric, street legal low speed vehicles (LSVs) designed to move people and goods safely and efficiently across campuses. GEM vehicles help reduce fleet operating costs, increase vehicle utilization, and reduce the CO2 footprint of a fleet in a real, actionable, and affordable way.
The Polaris Pro XD is built to withstand tough worksite conditions and enhance productivity. Pro XD is designed specifically for durability, serviceability, and safety, and has two- and four-seat gas and diesel models offering up to 2,075-pounds payload and 2,500-pounds towing capacities, heavy-duty driveline components, and up to 200-hour maintenance intervals.
