Cub Cadet

Cub Cadet's origins lie in the garden tractor division of International Harvester, a lineage transferred to MTD in 1981. Expanding its reach, the brand began importing Mitsubishi’s compact tractors to North America in 1993. A significant partnership was forged with Yanmar in 2006, leading to the marketing of Yanmar compact tractors under the Cub Cadet Yanmar banner. This collaboration evolved in 2011, culminating in Yanmar America taking complete ownership of the tractor line and the subsequent removal of the Cub Cadet designation from these compact models.
