“This night was really about our customers. We wanted to get everyone together, say thank you for their support and enjoy the opportunity to catch up away from the day-to-day,” Mr Forrester said.

“We’re continuing to build our Construction & Forestry business in WA, and strong relationships with our customers and John Deere are a big part of where we’re heading.”

“Our customers are at the centre of what we do, and it was fantastic to have the opportunity to spend time together outside the usual business environment,” Mr Wagner said.

“The relationships between our customers, our dealers and John Deere are incredibly important, and evenings like this give us the chance to connect, listen and simply enjoy some time together.”

Adding to the atmosphere was Smithy the Caricaturist, working the room and capturing a few familiar faces throughout the night.

The evening also gave customers the opportunity to connect with others from across Western Australia’s construction, civil, mining and infrastructure industries.

For AFGRI Equipment, the event was ultimately about bringing customers and the people behind John Deere together – a great venue, great company and a chance to enjoy an evening away from the day-to-day.
