Your industry, expertly covered

The trusted, experienced source of reporting on and analysis of the independent dealer sector

For almost 40 years, Service Dealer has been reporting on the people, businesses, machinery, challenges and opportunities shaping the UK and Irish dealer sector. What sets us apart is the depth of experience behind the editorial. We don't simply repeat press releases. We question, put into context and speak to the people who understand what is really happening on the ground.

At the helm is editor Steve Gibbs, who has spent more than 25 years covering the outdoor powered machinery dealer industry and building relationships with dealers, manufacturers and suppliers across the sector.

Our agricultural machinery editor, Martin Rickatson, is one of the UK's most experienced specialist agricultural machinery journalists, with an unrivalled depth of knowledge and a reputation built over decades of reporting on the sector.

Laurence Gale brings a lifetime of practical commercial turf-care experience to Service Dealer, alongside many years as a highly regarded writer and editor across leading industry publications. His specialist knowledge also informs his role as editor of our sister title, TurfPro.

Keith Christian, former head of BAGMA and editor of its magazine, has spent a long career immersed in the garden machinery industry, giving him an unrivalled perspective that spans dealerships, distribution, manufacturers and the wider trade.

Specialising in the Plant Hire & Construction machinery sector, Dan Gilkes, is an experienced editor, communicator, presenter, speaker and photographer for the magazine’s latest area of specialist focus.

Across the Atlantic, Sara Hey, the US dealer training specialist from Bob Clements International, brings an international perspective on dealership management, people, profitability and business development.

For the wider small-business picture, Adam Bernstein brings extensive experience as a business journalist, with credits across some of the UK's leading business-to-business publications. And every year, we dedicate space each and every issue to a working UK dealer, with our Diary Of A Season column providing an unfiltered view of what is really happening at the sharp end of the trade.

Whether you run a garden machinery, professional turfcare, agricultural, forestry, ATV or plant hire and construction machinery dealership, Service Dealer gives you the information, insight and perspective you need to keep ahead.
