Kubota Strengthens Agricultural Tractors Dealer Network in Wiltshire and Somerset

Kubota has enlarged its UK agricultural tractors sales network with the appointment of Cradock Tractors as its dealer covering North and West Wiltshire and North and East Somerset.

Cradock Tractors, of Westbury, Wiltshire, is a well-known, long established family-run business that has been supplying agricultural equipment to the farming community in the area for over 30 years.

It now offers Kubota M Series agricultural tractors, with six models ranging in power from 60 to 128hp. They all come with a three year manufacturer´s warranty as standard.

Formed in 1976 by Chris Cradock, the small business has a staff of five, including Chris´s son Roy, who works in the workshop.

Chris Cradock said: "Taking on the Kubota agricultural tractor dealership slots in neatly alongside the other top equipment brands we supply, and has lifted the business to the next stage in its growth.

"Kubota tractors are recognised by farmers as being rugged, easy to use and offering great value for money. There are mainly dairy farmers in our sales area and we are finding that the entire M Series is of interest to them."

Cradock Tractors is also providing a service and spare parts facility to back up its Kubota sales activities.

Currently celebrating 30 years in the UK and Ireland, Kubota provides a market-leading range of compact tractors and ride-on mowers, together with its class-leading RTV900 all-terrain utility vehicle, as well as being the global leader in the sub-50hp tractor sector.

Its M40 Series range agricultural tractors recently received the coveted Silver medal in the 2009 Royal Agricultural Society of England (RASE) Machinery Awards.
