“Lodi has served Kubota well over the years, but our continued growth and increased demand for Kubota products in the U.S. has prompted the need for a larger distribution facility here in the West. Elk Grove allows us to remain close to our existing employee base while we expand our operations to better serve our dealer network. And we’re hiring: career opportunities are available for a chance to get started with us today in Lodi and grow with us as we make the transition to Elk Grove.” 

said Kyle Hagen, Kubota’s Western Division Manager.

The new site will continue to provide easy access to Kubota dealers along the Central Valley corridor, as well as more closely link the company to capital region amenities, including the Sacramento International Airport.

“Elk Grove has a proven track record of thoughtful planning, significant infrastructure investment, innovative economic development services, and fast permit timelines, allowing us to attract businesses like Kubota to our city. Kubota benefits from Elk Grove’s strategic location in California’s affordable Central Valley including all the assets of the greater Sacramento and nearby San Joaquin Valley regions, allowing distributors and manufacturers to quickly and efficiently assemble and ship goods to their final destination throughout the West. We are thrilled to welcome Kubota to our community and look forward to their many successes.”

said Darrell Doan, Elk Grove’s Economic Development Director.

 “As the company continues on a high-growth trajectory, Kubota maintains its commitment to expanding our product offerings. Increasing the capacity of our West Division logistics operations will enable us to achieve even greater operational efficiencies to make Kubota’s business stronger and more competitive to meet growing customer demand in the United States.”

said Mr. Harry Yoshida, president and CEO of Kubota Tractor and Kubota North America Corporations.
