Irelands Farm Machinery are opening a Rutland Depot at Tinwell on June 2nd having been awarded the Kubota, Kverneland, Simba Great Plains, Vicon and Grange Machinery franchises for Rutland and the surrounding area. Already having these machinery franchises in Lincolnshire, this expansion will allow them to help and support more customers in this area with a full sales, parts, hire and service facility.
Importantly, alongside this they have also been awarded the Kubota Groundcare and Industrial Lite range of products for the same area and will be selling the complete Baroness range which includes a range of mowers suitable for golf clubs and sports pitches. For turf maintenance they will be selling Wiedenmann equipment including aerators and seeders, Campey turf Care including the Air2G2, Vredo Disc Seeder, and the Dakota Top Dresser and the Spearhead range of mowers, thus creating a range of products which will help customers in a wide range of circumstances.
They will also be introducing Agricultural and Groundcare Hire companies which carry a large amount of equipment. Over the past 5 months they have been recruiting a team of high calibre staff to give you the best possible service and are pleased to announce that Martin Jarvis joined the company on the 24th May as Branch Manager and will head up the Tinwell site. Martin is very experienced in Agricultural machinery having worked predominantly in this area throughout his career. His brother in law, Marcus Ladds, who is a highly experienced engineer, has already joined the company in the position of Service Manager and has spent the last two months preparing the new depot alongside builder Arthur Johnson. Paul Clayton who already works for the Company in the Bourne and Stamford area will still be covering that area and will be working from Tinwell as well as the Sutterton depot. William Fraser has joined the company to work alongside Martin in agricultural sales, William has worked on several estates locally and is an experienced operator who sees sales as a natural progression into the industry. He will be joined by Simon Tunn who has come to work on the Groundcare side of the business, Simon has previously worked as a Greenkeeper on some of the UK’s best Golf Courses and will bring great experience to the role. On the 2nd June Jake Meakins will be joining the company to run the Agricultural and Groundcare stores department. Jake has previously worked for a local farm supplies company and is keen to get into the machinery side of the business. Throughout the rest of the Irelands Group there is a wealth of knowledge and experience in all types of Agriculture and Groundcare, and it is the Company's intention to provide a first class service and parts back up for all of the products at the Tinwell Depot. They will be holding an open day and working day in the near future, as COVID regulations allow.
