Krone

Krone and Amazone are two entirely separate companies in Germany and in 1997 Amazone Limited commenced the importing of Krone equipment. This was a strategic alliance between the two companies as Amazone specialise in arable equipment and Krone in foraging technology and this alliance was made additioanlly easier by the fact that the two companies are both family owned, are only 30 minutes drive apart and both families have known each other for many years.
