Tallis Amos Group (TAG) has appointed Mark Smith to the role of agricultural sales director (East).
The announcement follows TAG’s significant expansion into Shropshire after Rea Valley Tractors’ decision to give up its John Deere franchise.
TAG’s new 40,000 square foot depot at Allscott, near Telford, is due to fully open in March 2023, and the dealership also has plans to open an additional site near Lampeter in spring 2023.
Mr Smith joins TAG having spent 27 years working for John Deere UK at Langar, Nottinghamshire, latterly as strategic account manager for the UK and Ireland.
“TAG has a phenomenal reputation and is at an exciting point in its expansion,” he said, “and I look forward to working with the team to help take the company from strength to strength.”
TAG’s managing director, Ben Tallis, said the firm had plans to double its turnover to £120 million within four years.
“This appointment illustrates the ambition of the company and our desire to recruit first-class people to help drive this journey,” he added. “Mark’s strong relationships, extensive knowledge of the Agricultural industry and exceptional product knowledge make him the ideal person to help us deliver the next stage of continued growth.”
