It was through sheer determination that saw the very first Midwest front come to life in 1998. Founder, Martin Schutt, believed he could build a harvest platform that was suited to the undulated country he would be harvesting on. Since then, Martin has continued to develop innovative harvesting machinery and pioneered the world's first 60ft front. 

Midwest platforms are recognised globally, and are used nationally on properties across Australia. 

Today, the Midwest team is based in Dalby, Queensland where they manufacture platforms on-site. Midwest fronts are the only platforms designed and manufactured on Aussie soil.
