Atlanta-based Deutz last week appointed Harper Power Products as its authorized distributor for the province of Ontario, Canada.

Harper Power Products is now the sole distributor in Ontario for Deutz engines and will offer sales, parts and service through its Toronto, Ontario facility with branch locations in Hamilton, London, Ottawa, Timmins and Lively.

“The Deutz product further strengthens our presence in Ontario, adds a product line that compliments our existing infrastructure and provides our customers with a broader range of engine solutions,” said Paul Harper, co-chairman and CEO of Harper Group.

“Harper Power Products brings a wealth of diesel sales experience and product support to Deutz,” said Larry Magera, director of sales and distribution of Deutz Corp.

Deutz is an international independent supplier of diesel and gas engines used in construction and agricultural machinery, power generating plants, ships and commercial and rail vehicles.
