Pittsford – The ribbon is officially cut! The Rutland Region Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon cutting and grand opening celebration recently for Townline Equipment located at 1426 US-7 in Pittsford.

Townline Equipment is a family owned and operated business originally owned by Bob Marrazzo. Drew and Matt Marrazzo worked summers and part-time at Townline when they were young, Drew in the shop and parts departments and Matt in the parts department and business office for their Father Bob Marrazzo. Drew joined the sales team full-time in 2004. And after working in marketing and accounting for another local company, Matt joined Townline full-time in 2008.  In 2011, Drew and Matt became the new owners of Townline Equipment.

Townline Equipment has carried the Kubota line for over 40 years as one of the original 25 Kubota dealers in America. This year, Townline Equipment acquired Giddings Manufacturing from the Giddings family, also one of the original Kubota dealers. From this new location, they provide equipment, parts, and service solutions for a wide range of Kubota and Land Pride products. They have also added a third fully equipped service truck to the Townline fleet to serve customers in this new market area.
