Our Company | John Deere Equipment

4Rivers Equipment | History

In 1926, 4Rivers Equipment began as Romer Mercantile, a small John Deere agriculture equipment dealer in Holly, Colorado. Through dedication and perseverance, the store prospered through difficult times and began to grown during the 1960s.

The first expansion was a new store in Lamar. Soon after, we expanded into construction along with John Deere. Stores in Fort Collins, Pueblo, and Colorado Springs were opened to cover the new sector.

Growth continued rapidly throughout the 90s and 2000s. With the acquisition of Tom Growney Equipment in 2013, we grew to 14 total stores.

Initially the construction and agriculture stores operated under different names. However, in 2013 after addition of the Tom Growney stores, the brand was combined under the 4Rivers Equipment name.

We now feature agriculture locations, construction locations, and some stores that are combined ag and construction. Thanks to the dedication of over 300 highly trained and skilled employees, we plan on being your working partner for the foreseeable future.

“Bought a new John Deere Mower Conditioner 625 from this store this year. Machine is awesome and service up to the purchase was great. I gave it 4 out of 5 stars as the only thing I think would live room for a bit of improvement is the delivery. Felt a little rushed to get out the door after purchase and would’ve like a few more pointers on the machine itself before I left the dealership. Otherwise good experience. Parts dept is helpful as well.”

-Jeff Randol, Fort Collins, CO – August, 2017

“Bought a JD 1025r in October. I have to say what wonderful place to shop. Have made a few purchases in store over the last few years, smaller Stihl items. Few chain saws, trimmer, leaf blower ect. Every time it has be a pleasure. No matter which parts employees I get or the sales rep that helped with the tractor there has been no complaints. I haven’t had to deal with the service department yet but that is a good thing. Great product excellent staff, I can not say enough about their staff. I completely recommend this store. If your coming from outside Pueblo west it is worth the drive.”

“We see Jeff from 4Rivers every week. He’s our partner, and when it comes to getting anything equipment related, he’s on it. Jeff does a great job of alerting his team of what we need and where we need it. We see him as apart of our team at Frazee.”

-Frazee Construction

“Kevin and the team always asks before he heads this way if I need any parts. They know that I’m a ways out from Colorado Springs, so just by them asking if I need anything when they are in the area saves me a trip charge. Kevin has even brought parts at another dealership because I needed something on his way up. It’s just something a friend would do.”

– Larry Conley, Conley Construction

“I think the biggest reason I work with 4Rivers comes down to the fact that we have a mutual respect for each other. No matter what department I work with, they are always thinking about my business as if it was their own. We come to the conclusion on a reasonable solution for both of our businesses. I think of it this way, when things are tough, we are both in the same boat.”

– Les Ball, L7L Enterprises

Can you name the Four Rivers?

Our previous names, Colorado Equipment and Colorado Machinery wasn’t very fitting for the growth into Wyoming, New Mexico and Texas. So after careful thought, the name 4Rivers Equipment became our new name.

Having headwaters here in Colorado, 4Rivers Equipment’s history and future are well represented by the name. The four rivers that make up the name 4Rivers Equipment are the Colorado, the Rio Grande, the Platte, and the Arkansas.
