MKM Agriculture, the Bedfordshire-based ATV and UTV dealership, this week officially opened its second branch in Suffolk, following the firm’s establishment of new premises at Ixworth Thorpe, near Bury St Edmunds, back in March. The development follows the departure from ATV retailing of Fieldens, the area’s former Honda dealer.

While it retails all four leading ATV makes from its Beds branch, the company, which has been selling, servicing and supporting professional ATVs since 2003, and sport/leisure machines since 2006, will be focusing on Honda - whose products it has been retailing since 2016 - from its new branch.
“Not only are we selling the Honda ATV products, though, but we are also really pleased to have just been awarded the Honda domestic grasscare franchise for this area,” says Anthony Deacon, managing director of the MKM Agriculture business, which he runs alongside his father, Mark.
“In addition, we are also retailing a full range of complementary products for ATV users from suppliers including Logic and Wessex, giving us a full line of machinery and implements.
“At the new premises, we have a showroom, full workshop facilities and a comprehensive spare parts store. In addition, we have an off-road demonstration area where we can show what our machines are capable of and potential customers can try them out. And we’re really pleased to have attracted a good number of former Fieldens staff to work with us, including Keith Collins, who is managing the new Suffolk branch.”
