As part of its employee spotlight program, AGCO dealer Parallel Ag introduced Luke McCartney, the general manager at the company’s Fulton, Ill., store.

The dealership said, “For Luke, this isn’t just a job — it’s part of the family legacy. As the 4^th generation of McCartneys involved in the business, he got his start in the parts department at A.C. McCartney - Durand back in high school and has worn a lot of hats since then. From parts counters to HR, Luke’s journey brought him full circle — right back to the business that’s been in his family for decades.”
