Cockshutt

Canada • 41 Models

Cockshutt is a historically significant Canadian agricultural machinery brand with roots tracing back to the late 19th century. The company's origins lie in the Cockshutt family's various businesses, which eventually led to the establishment of the Cockshutt Plow Company in 1910. This marked the beginning of the company's formal entry into the agricultural equipment market. However, it was in 1946 that Cockshutt made its most notable contribution to the industry by becoming the first Canadian manufacturer to produce a line of modern farm tractors. This breakthrough established Cockshutt as a pioneering force in the Canadian agricultural machinery sector. The company's tractors were known for their innovative design and reliability, which quickly gained them a strong reputation among farmers. In 1961, Cockshutt's tractor manufacturing operations were acquired by the White Motor Company, which later became White Tractor. This acquisition marked a significant turning point in the brand's history, as it integrated Cockshutt's expertise into a larger organization while continuing to leverage its established brand name and product legacy.
