Improved customer support for Landini tractor users in Kent is promised following the move by local sales and service dealer Horsepower UK to more spacious and better equipped premises.


Fruit machinery specialist Horsepower UK supplies and supports Landini Rex and Mistral fruit tractors from its new base in Selling near Faversham. It is also the national distributor for Wanner orchard sprayers.

Horsepower UK's new premises at Selling near Faversham is not far from the company's previous location but has much easier access to the local main road network. It will be easier for service vehicles to reach customers and for customers to take advantage of the improved parts, accessories and sundries sales facilities.

"We now have a display area for the first time, stocked with service consumables such as filters, oils and batteries, plus tools and all the other items that farmers often need in a hurry,"says Horsepower UK partner Phil Stanford. "We also have a larger workshop for repairs and servicing, a bigger parts storage area and better offices."

Business partners Phil Stanford and Clive Deal (who looks after service operations) are hopeful that the new premises at Selling will help further improve their service standards and attract new customers.

"We're very much fruit specialists at present," says Phil. "But we're keen to expand into the livestock and arable sectors with the all-new Landini tractors being launched this year."
