Based at Tow Law, west of Durham, Watson Machinery is run by father and daughter Mark and Emily Watson. The outlet will be a full product line Kuhn dealer, with a focus on retailing the brand's grass and forage machinery, along with the bedding and feeding ranges. To help with this, a Kuhn VB 3260 variable chamber round baler will be a demonstrator unit throughout the spring period to Watson Machinery customers.

The Watson Machinery area for the products will cover Durham and surrounding areas, to Sunderland on the coast, extending westwards to meet the Cumbrian border. 

Speaking on behalf of Watson Machinery, Emily Watson said, "Taking on KUHN opens a vast range of products that we haven’t been able to offer customers before. Our business has grown very organically since dad started it 35 years ago and this is the next step for us. The feeding and bedding machines are a new product offering and we’re excited to grow the baler and grass machinery coverage in the area. We’re a family firm and everyone helps to ensure customers are fully supported.”

Karl Ridsdale from Kuhn said of Watson Machinery, "Its strong local presence and focus on grassland and livestock machinery make the dealership a perfect partner to drive Kuhn forward in the region.”
