AVR strengthens UK dealer network

Share this item

In order to consolidate further growth in the UK, AVR has added dealer Ernest Doe & Sons Ltd and two service points, Jackson Agri & Plant Ltd and Matt Horler Agricultural Engineering Ltd, to its local network. 

AVR aims to continue expanding its business in the UK market and display its full machinery range in the UK. Therefore, like in other key markets, AVR already expanded its local AVR UK team last year to support dealers and customers. Now the manufacturer from Belgium further strengthens its dealer network in the UK.

Ernest Doe & Sons is well placed to support clients with AVR machinery, backed by their expert advice and service. AVR machines will be available throughout their entire network, which enables AVR to make its machines easily available to a wide audience.

“Partnering with Ernest Doe & Sons is an important step for us”, said Andrew Starbuck, Country Manager UK, AVR. “Their extensive branch network, experienced sales teams, and strong aftersales support make them the ideal partner to deliver our machinery to potato growers throughout the Ernest Doe trading area. We look forward to working closely together to help customers get the best out of our machines.”

Thanks to the appointment of Jackson Agri & Plant Ltd and Matt Horler Agricultural Engineering Ltd as new Service Dealers, potato growers in both the Yorkshire and South West region will now have local, specialist support for AVR machinery. Offering service, spare parts, and sales assistance for AVR’s full range, from planters and harvesters to grading and crop care equipment, they both bring years of root crop expertise to the role.

Led by Managing Director Neil Jackson, Jackson Agri is already well-established in the agricultural sector, providing specialist servicing for a variety of equipment, including applicators from leading manufacturers such as Chafer Horstine, Stocks, and others. Their strong local presence and in-depth technical knowledge make them ideally placed to support AVR customers across Yorkshire.

Matt Horler also brings a lot of experience to the table. With his professionalism, he will provide the South West region with service and advice.

These service points will be supported by AVR’s UK-based personnel, both in sales and aftersales.
