Farm equipment specialist RW Crawford has extended its territory across the South-east of England with a new depot at Billingshurst to serve farmers and contractors in Sussex and Hampshire.
Originally from Essex, Crawfords look after the neighboring county of Kent, so when the opportunity arose in the dealer network across the Sussex/Hampshire area the business took the decision to expand its territory and service offering.
Key franchises on offer from the new depot include Fendt and Valtra, plus Amazone, Spearhead and HM Trailers. The move to Sussex also sees Crawfords take on the role of Väderstad dealer for the region, while the business also holds the franchise for Isuzu pick-up trucks.
The firm’s new territory stretches from East Sussex to the M3 in the west. From the south coast it reaches northwards up into greater London, following the M25 into Essex.
“We’re really excited to be growing our business into new areas and are looking forward to dealing with new customers,” managing director Wes Crawford said. “Our reputation has been built on service and that’s something we plan to continue. Our new site in Billingshurst is positioned centrally – which is ideal for supporting our customers across the territory.
“We currently have trained mobile technicians supporting the area with technicians available from Essex and Kent if required to ensure minimum downtime. Our vans are mobile workshops, equipped with diagnostic equipment, spare parts and electrical components making for the most efficient on-site support.
“We’re very focused on preventative maintenance and, therefore, almost every machine we sell now goes out the door with an extended warranty,” he added. “A very large proportion of our customers now opt for service packages – either on a pay-as-you-go basis or with a regular invoice. Fixing machine servicing costs allows customers to have a full understanding of their running costs, receive on-time servicing and regular software updates to provide the peace of mind that their machine is in prime working condition.”
