In 1890 Abraham Brubaker Groff started selling fertilizers and  farm equipment to neighbors and friends. He used a barn as a warehouse. The original building was constructed in 1893.  A new building was then constructed at the present location in 1902 with additions made in 1928 and 1950. During the early years the business was known as “A.B. Groff,” after its founder.

The company contracted with New Holland Grassland Machinery in 1903 and with John Deere Tractors in 1915. A.B.C. Groff was the oldest New Holland dealer in the area.

When the founder’s son, Charles, took over the business, a “C” was added to the company name changing it to A.B.C. Groff as it continues to be known today. A corporation was formed in 1963.  Charles Groff continued to operate the  business until 1967 when the family sold the business.

The  business grew to represents a number of short lines that compliment the major line of equipment of John Deere and New Holland North America (CNH). Kioti, Kuhn, Hardi, Yanmar, Bush Hog, Bradco, Ramrod, Quicke and Earth & Turf were a few of the smaller lines of equipment.

Ag Industrial, Inc. a New Holland dealer along with Wengers of Myerstown, a well-known used farm equipment and parts dealer added a 3rd location with the purchase of the assets of A.B.C. Groff, Inc. in mid 2010.
