Lincolnshire-based Grégoire Besson UK has announced the appointment of three new distributors to sell its range of cultivation machinery.
Agricultural machinery dealerships, RC Setchfield Ltd, Brockhills of Yorkshire Ltd and RBM Agricultural Ltd, will now champion Grégoire Besson’s full range of ploughs, disc harrows, tined cultivators and tillage equipment.
RC Setchfield Ltd is a family run business that was set up in Grantham in 1982. Richard Setchfield, the company’s managing director, said, "For us, the huge range of ploughs and cultivators from a well-respected and experienced manufacturer like Grégoire Besson will give us the competitive edge to strengthen our business. The quality of their machinery has a proven history plus, they offer ongoing improvement in design and types of machines for ever-changing customer demands."

L-R: Robin Immink, Managing Director, Grégoire Besson; Richard Setchfield, Managing Director, RC Setchfield Ltd; Harvey Sherwin, Eastern Area Sales Manager, Grégoire Besson and Steve West, Area Sales Manager, RC Setchfield Ltd.
Peter Swales, Brockhills’ managing director echoed this sentiment and said, "Having looked around at competitors in the market, especially plough manufacturers, I found that the Grégoire Besson range suited the specific needs of my customers better than the rest. I look for specific brands to meet specific product sectors; I don’t want price conflicts with multiple products offerings. We’re customer focused and appreciate the quality backup and advice that Robin and Harvey provide. Our recent investment in new premises is the perfect environment to showcase Grégoire Besson’s equipment."

Ben Moseley, Sales Development Manager at RBM Agricultural Ltd said, "It’s been over 30 years since we last changed our heavy cultivation equipment supplier and we didn’t take the decision lightly. Since taking Grégoire Besson on we’ve had great customer comments. In fact, feedback from our customers at recent shows and demonstrations has been very positive, with many saying it was the best ploughing equipment they’ve ever used."
