DEALER NETWORK GROWS

Merlo UK have announced a new dealer, and an expansion of territory & responsibility for an existing dealer to strengthen their dealer network in Scotland. This follows a decision by Merlo UK to end its relationship with HRN.

New to the network are Fife based J Low Agri Services Ltd (pictured above). Established by Jimmy & Karen Low in 2002 as a tractor hire business, J Low Agri Services quickly expanded into an agricultural engineering service business in the Fife area following Jimmy’s decision to become self-employed. Now based off Junction 4 of the M90 at Kelty, the dealership looks to continue their trend of consistent growth as a Merlo dealer.

Owen Buttle, National Sales Manager of Merlo UK, commented, “Fife is a key agricultural area of Scotland and we are extremely happy to have J Low Agri joining the Merlo network."

Jimmy Low, founder and owner of J Low Agri Services, said, “This is a great opportunity for us to grow our product offering to new and existing customers, we look forward working with Merlo and further developing our business.”

Expanding to become a combined Merlo dealer with the upcoming launch of RAS Plant Sales, Ross Agri Services Ltd will grow the Merlo offering they have provided to their customers since 2020.

The newly formed division of RAS Plant Sales will operate alongside Ross Agri Services from their existing St Cyrus, Turriff depots plus the newly acquired Muir of Ord location, enabling RAS to carry Merlo construction products.

Shaun Groom, general manager of Merlo UK, said, "I am confident that the Merlo brand will only continue to grow further with the high level of customer support that RAS are renowned for”.

Martin Ross, managing director of Ross Agri Services Ltd, stated, “We are delighted to be expanding our Merlo trading area, not only representing the Merlo agricultural range, but now the Merlo construction product offering too."
