PICTURED ABOVE: The Irwin brothers have supplied Krone machinery for over 10 years
Krone say their self-propelled harvester has gone from strength to strength since it was first introduced to the Island of Ireland by Farmhand in 2005.
The popularity of these harvesters is highlighted by the recent appointment of two new BiG X dealers. Irwin Brothers in Co. Fermanagh and McMullan Agri. in Co. Antrim have been appointed to supply the Krone BiG X harvester as part of their existing machinery businesses.
Irwin Brothers are a family business situated at Magheraveely, Co. Fermanagh. “We’ve been supplying Krone machinery for over 10 years, and many of our customers already run a BiG X harvester so it’s great we can now supply them with the full line up of Krone equipment,” said Stephen Irwin, who looks after machinery sales for Irwin Bros. “We take great satisfaction in delivering a high level of customer service and care, and we see this as a step towards ensuring we can continue to meet all the requirements of our customers and strengthen our future relationship with Farmhand."
McMullan Agri is a family machinery business based in Ballymoney
McMullan Agri is also a family machinery business based in Ballymoney, Co. Antrim. Looking after Krone machinery sales for McMullan Agri is Jonny McMullan “I’m really excited to now offer our customers the BiG X. Supplying the Krone harvesters from where we are based on the North coast will make the brand more accessible for many contractors in our area.” Jonny explained “We pride ourselves in supplying our customers with a quality product and with Krone’s commitment to research and development I’m confident we are offering the best there is."
Stephen Scrivener, sales sirector of Farmhand added, “We are proud to extend our partnership with both of these dealers, they have already been doing an excellent job for our brands and provide exceptional service and back up. We are excited to see how they can progress the future of BiG X in the North."
