21st Century Equipment…the regional John Deere dealership headquartered in Bridgeport…has purchased MV Equipment…a John Deere dealership with five locations in eastern Colorado. 21st Century will now have 15 locations in Nebraska and Colorado..

21st Century CEO Owen Palm says the acquisition of the stores in Sterling, Burlington, Yuma, Wray and Holyoke increases the company’s presence on the eastern Colorado plains to 9 stores and strengthens the entire chain.
