In 1837, John Deere, an inventive blacksmith, forged a special plow in his shop in Grand Detour, Illinois. The plow allowed settlers to cultivate the sticky soil and transform the prairie into fertile farmland. From those enterprising beginnings, Deere & Company grew into a global corporation that today does business in more than 160 countries and employs approximately 45,000 people worldwide. The company is guided today, as it has been since 1837, by John Deere�s original values: a commitment to product quality, customer service, business integrity, and a high regard for individual contribution.
