Tigercat dealer Tidewater Equipment Expands into Arkansas

PARIS ON, JULY 21, 2006 – Tidewater Equipment has expanded into Arkansas and will be representing the full line of Tigercat forestry equipment with stores located in Warren and Glenwood. A strong dealer with an excellent reputation for providing comprehensive parts and service support to logging professionals, Tidewater has been a full-line Tigercat dealer since 1993. In that time the company has acquired extensive technical expertise pertaining to Tigercat equipment.

"Tidewater Equipment is excited to have the opportunity to be in Arkansas to sell and service Tigercat machines," says Tidewater executive vice president, Ken Trowbridge. "We look forward to meeting the logging contractors in the territory and we will demonstrate to them our dedication to supporting their operations through our parts and service departments. Tidewater is singly focused on serving the forest products industries in the territories we represent."

David Long, who previously worked for two other Tigercat equipment dealers, Patrick-Miller Tractor Company and B&G Equipment Inc. in both service and sales management roles, will be managing Tidewater's Arkansas operations. Long is well qualified for this role with extensive knowledge of Tigercat products.
