ABOUT US

Built on Innovation and Reliability Since 1978

Exeter Engineering was founded in 1978 by Jeff Batchman in Exeter, California — a small town in the heart of the citrus industry. His vision was to build cutting-edge, reliable machines made by people who take pride in their work. From citrus-handling systems, the company expanded into equipment for root crops, vegetables, and other produce. Today, Exeter serves customers worldwide — with installations across Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Though still a family-owned company led by Jeff’s son, Boomer, Exeter remains committed to the same values. Jeff’s legacy continues to guide our work and our dedication to customer success.
