With a whole host of new models, new equipment technologies and, most recently, a brand new colour scheme, demand for Yanmar’s class-leading range of excavators, loaders and carriers continues to grow.
The summer months have proven no different, with dealers nationwide reporting record enquiries and packed order books. But with so much to talk about, the network has been working harder than ever to share the market’s most in-demand models with operators nationwide.
From attending some of Britain’s leading trade shows, to hosting a number of exclusive open days, we’ve put together a quick snapshot of some of the latest highlights from across the network.
Chris Knight Plant Sales exhibits at the Black Isle Show
In August, Chris Knight Plant Sales, Yanmar’s dealer for Northern Scotland, travelled up to the Mannsfield Showground in Ross-shire to exhibit at this year’s Black Isle Show. Widely regarded as the largest agricultural event in the north, the weekend attracted thousands of visitors from across Scotland and further afield.
On stand C50, Chris and the team showcased some of Yanmar’s most iconic compact equipment, including the B110W wheeled excavator, B75W wheeled excavator and SV26 compact tracked excavator. With a number of models finished in its all-new ‘Premium Red’ livery, countless operators dropped by to meet the team and shared their support for the new corporate colour scheme.
Phoenix Hire and Sales hosts equipment open day
Next month (8-9 September), Phoenix Hire and Sales – Yanmar’s dealer for South Wales, Gloucestershire and Bristol – will host a compact equipment open day at its depot in Newport. Specialising in tool, plant and powered access equipment, the event aims to bring together operators from across the region to showcase the market’s latest models and attachments.
From live product demonstrations and walk-around machine tours, to games, promotions and great offers across a wide range of brand-new stock, the open day will profile class-leading models from several major suppliers.
Jason Derraven, sales and marketing director at Phoenix Hire and Sales, commented: “With demand for state-of-the-art compact plant equipment continuing to increase, we wanted to host a special event to profile some of the latest models available to operators across the region. Our open day aims to give customers the opportunity to see these machines in a working setting, as well as benefit from a whole host of promotions and special offers.”
“Last month, we officially opened an 8,000sqft workshop facility at our Newport site, equipped with the latest tooling, diagnostics equipment and a wide range of spare parts to provide repair and refurbishment solutions. Visitors to our open day can take a tour of the new building and see the result of our continued investment into our national operations.”
With a class-leading portfolio operational on sites across the globe, there’s never been a better time to choose Yanmar.
