- TYM Corporation engages in the manufacturing and sale of agricultural machinery and earthmoving equipment, focusing primarily on tractors, combine harvesters, and rice transplanters. The company offers a comprehensive range of tractor series including sub-compact, compact, and utility tractors designed for varied farming applications, alongside specialized harvesters tailored for efficiency across different land scales and advanced rice transplanters capable of precise seedling planting with integrated fertilization. Founded in 1951 and headquartered in South Korea, TYM operates globally with significant market presence in Asia, North America, and other international regions through sales and service networks.
In recent developments, TYM completed the acquisition of Kukje Machinery Corporation, consolidating it as a wholly-owned subsidiary to enhance production capacities, technology integration, and broaden market reach. The company is expanding its North American footprint notably through the launch of the TYM Cedartown Campus in Georgia, USA, which serves as a strategic hub for enhancing customer service, parts logistics, and after-sales support. TYM also opened multiple regional integrated service hubs in South Korea, including Plaza Yeongnam and Plaza Honam, reinforcing its customer-centric approach. Additionally, TYM entered the certified used tractor business for John Deere in South Korea, managing the entire purchase, maintenance, and sales process with extensive nationwide service coverage. The company is advancing its production capabilities with plans to increase annual tractor output from 30,000 to 50,000 units in North America while maintaining a diverse global product portfolio including planned launches of new branded products with partners like John Deere and ISEKI in 2026.
TYM focuses on providing high-performance agricultural equipment designed for durability and productivity enhancement, meeting the needs of farmers and agricultural professionals across various regions. Its operations include extensive dealer networks, numerous service centers, and dedicated customer service plazas. The company leverages strategic acquisitions and partnerships to strengthen its competitive position, especially in the expanding North American market and across emerging international regions.
