Club Car has announced Hunt Forest Group as a new UK distribution partner.

Hunt Forest Group is based in the south of England, with nine branches across five counties, and supplies specialist machinery, parts and services to the professional turf, construction and residential markets. Earlier this year it acquired Smart Agricultural Services to nearly double in size, now employing 180 staff.

The manufacturer says the new partnership will help strengthen their presence in the south and south-west regions of the UK, supplying their golf, commercial and consumer vehicles to a large, diverse customer base. 

Andy Bourke, Club Car’s regional manager UK&I & Nordics, said, “This is a very exciting partnership which will allow Club Car to continue growing across the south of the UK.

“There are more than 120 golf clubs in this region, and having Hunt Forest Group on board will allow Club Car to serve and support this market. Hunt Forest Group is an ambitious organisation that places an emphasis on excellent service and strong relationships, so it’s an excellent fit with Club Car and we look forward to building together.”

Ed Smales, Hunt Forest Group sales director, said, “We are extremely excited to add Club Car to our portfolio. Club Car will strengthen our position in the professional turf and commercial market, giving us fantastic product power. 

“Coupled with our service and support, we feel this will be a mutually beneficial partnership for not only Hunt Forest and Club Car but also our customer base and the existing Club Car customers.”
