Kuhn Farm Machinery has strengthened its dealer coverage in north west England with the appointment of HB Machinery, based near Preston.
The manufacturer says the partnership fills part of an opening in its dealer network. The new dealer’s area begins near its base at Wrea Green, just west of Preston, and extends beyond Lancaster at its most northerly point. The outlet will retail Kuhn’s full line of equipment and, founders, Harry and Donna Boardman say the team are excited to work with a premium brand and product range, explaining, “We wanted to work with a high quality and respected implement manufacturer that can supply market-leading products for our diverse customer base."
HB Machinery started in 2020 and has specialised in selling quality used tractors for both domestic and export markets. Harry and Donna believe selling and supporting Kuhn machines, alongside the current franchise of Bailey Trailers, will be appealing to end users. Karl Ridsdale, area sales manager at Kuhn UK, says Harry’s reputation and proactive attitude will be well received by customers.
“He has the knowledge and expertise that’s so valuable, and it strengthens our position in the west. We’re looking forward to supporting his family business to grow and flourish with the Kuhn brand.”
