New Holland has announced a number of changes in their dealer network in Scotland.
The manufacturer says Lloyd Ltd will move into the existing Lothian NH Ag depot at Macmerry industrial estate, Tranent for an initial period with a view to locating to a larger facility in the area in the near future. Staff have been offered employment with Lloyd Ltd.
Lloyd Ltd continue to operate from their existing two New Holland Agriculture depots in southern Scotland and the Borders at Kelso and Dumfries.
In addition to their Lanark depot, subject to completion of contracts, Bryson Tractors will take ownership of the current Agricar depot in Dundonald providing customers in the area a continuity of service. Many of the staff in the depot will move to Bryson Tractors to further enhance this continuity.
Agricar will continue to offer the full range of New Holland products and parts from all existing depots in Forfar, Stirling, Perth, Laurencekirk and Blairgowrie and say they will open a new depot in the Fife area in the near future.
Ravenhill Ltd based in Elgin will continue to cover the north of Scotland.
Pat Smith, New Holland business director for UK said, “We are delighted that these three companies with a long trading history have each expanded to enhance our already excellent coverage in Scotland. It provides to them all the critical mass to invest and grow their businesses fit for the future.
"Importantly it provides our many customers in Scotland with continuity and exceptional service for many years to come.”
