Located at 2555 Cove Mountain Road, Martinsburg, PA, West Central features new and used John Deere farm and ag equipment. West Central Equipment’s relationship with John Deere dates back to 1938, when Fred J. Slezak started a dealership in New Alexandria in the basement of a chicken coop. In 1976, after a period of being closed, his son Fredrick resumed the business, creating Lone Maple Sales & Service, Inc. – which is home to New Alexandria location. Fredrick’s son and current President, David, took over in 1980 with the single location until 2007 when he partnered with Joel Wineland and Rodney Metzler of Wineland Equipment, previous owners of another long standing John Deere dealership, to form West Central Equipment. Two years later, in 2009, Scheffel Equipment in Somerset was acquired. Four years after that, in 2013, they opened their Butler location. As of April 2017, they are proud to announce that their 5th location was opened, located in Ebensburg. Their 5 locations serve 18 counties in Pennsylvania, Northern Maryland, and West Virginia.
