DEXTER, Mich. — Paladin Attachments today announced the acquisition of Kodiak Manufacturing Inc. Founded in 1996 and headquartered in Charleston, Tenn., Kodiak is a leading manufacturer of agricultural implements including rotary cutters, soil and gravel movers, tillers and additional tractor implements.
