The first adjustment sees south Wales-based Hopkins Machinery expand its reach, now offering Kubota groundcare and M-series tractors from its Kilcot depot near Newent, Gloucestershire. This expansion strengthens the family-run dealership’s presence around Ross-on-Wye, Gloucester, and the western side of Cheltenham.
“We’re extremely pleased to be able to provide sales, service and support for all the existing Kubota products we handle, but now through our Kilcot depot in addition to our St Brides Wentloog, South Wales headquarters, and our Brecon, Powys locations,” said Evan Hopkins, company director.
The second change allows Pallisers of Hereford to extend its coverage eastward, incorporating Upton-upon-Severn and the western side of Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire. The dealership also expands north and east towards Pershore, Hanbury and Bromsgrove in Worcestershire.
“We’re pleased to be expanding our Kubota tractor business within these additional areas,” said Camilla Palliser, dealer principal at Pallisers of Hereford.
“We’re looking forward to supporting new Pallisers customers throughout these areas.”
The third dealer to benefit is Lister Wilder, which has gained additional ground in the north of its region. The expansion stretches east from Cheltenham to include Northleach and Hazleton and extends north into the Cotswolds towards Bourton-on-the-Water, Gloucestershire, connecting with the area recently taken over by Hunts Engineering at Halford, Warwickshire.
“Any extension to our sales area is always going to be a positive step forward for Lister Wilder and the Kubota brand,” said Lister Wilder sales director Phill Hughes.
“It’s an opportunity to work with and support many new customers.”
