J&S Montgomery will offer the Kverneland portfolio across an extended area following the acquisition of DKR Agricultural Services.
Douglas Montgomery, dealer principal at J&S Montgomery said: “We’re delighted to have expanded into Lanarkshire and are currently working with DKR and its staff to ensure it’s business as usual for all customers and staff, as the Coulter site is integrated into the J&S Montgomery portfolio, to operate alongside our existing premises at Beith, Stranraer and Ayr.”
DKR Agricultural Services, which was run by David Doig, his sister Susan and brother Keith, has traded since 1989, predominantly working dairy and livestock farms.
“We’re looking forward to welcoming customers old and new through the doors at our newly integrated depot based at Coulter, as we increase our trading area for the Kverneland product range,” said Douglas. “We’ll also be holding a launch event at Lanark market on April 17 to introduce our brands to the wider farming community.”
Dan Crowe, Kverneland managing director, said: “We are pleased to support further development of the J&S Montgomery business, which adds clarity to the distribution of the Kverneland portfolio in this area. As a result, R&R Machinery – formerly Ross of Lanark – will no longer be part of the Kverneland dealer network.”
