Kubota (UK) has announced that Lister Wilder is to further widen its geographical area, reaching into parts of South-west England.
This progressive extension of its sales area and customer base will see the dealership expand into Somerset to support agricultural and groundscare customers across the South-west of England from its newest Kubota centre, located at Keynsham, Bristol.
“Lister Wilder’s expansion further strengthens Kubota’s commitment to its customers and the markets in which our business operates,” the general manager of Kubota (UK)’s tractor business unit, Henry Bredin, said. “This move sees Lister Wilder continue to strengthen its partnership with Kubota, as it actively supports a wider customer base in both agricultural and ground care sectors.”
Lister Wilder was the first full-line Kubota dealer in Europe, and its business expansion plans have already seen the first of its new Kubota centres established at Meadowlands, Bibury, Gloucestershire, and also at Keynsham, Bristol.
Both these new Kubota centres have led to the creation of new jobs within sales, after-sales and service, plus parts and warranty departments, stimulating the local economies in which Lister Wilder operates.
Lister Wilder’s Bristol-based Kubota centre will be based at Burnett Business Park from May 2022. Its location will enable the dealership to support customers in North Somerset and the Mendip Hills, reaching South to Bridgwater and the Quantocks.
“We’re pleased to be a part of this exciting journey with Kubota, but just as importantly, we’re looking forward to welcoming new and existing agricultural and ground care customers through the doors at Keynsham,” Lister Wilder’s sales director, Phill Hughes, said.
