Kuhn Farm Machinery has added RVW Pugh to its dealer network to cover Cheshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Derbyshire, south Lancashire and mid Wales.

This proactive move follows various announcements and changes concerning Kuhn’s previous dealers covering these counties, notably Rea Valley Tractors and Malpas Tractors.

With nearly 50 years of experience selling and supporting farmers, RVW Pugh is now responsible for the full Kuhn range of grassland and arable machinery, along with the brand’s electronic services.

Operating from three depots: Churchstoke, Powys; Holmes Chapel, Cheshire; and Lathom, south Lancashire, the latter is a Kuhn square baler centre to support customers in Cheshire and south Lancashire. TR Machinery, part of the RVW Pugh Group based in Newport, Shropshire, will also stock the full range of Kuhn equipment.

“The appointment of RVW Pugh fills a recent gap in our dealer coverage and we’re delighted to have such a recognised and well-respected business joining our distribution network,” comments Sian Pritchard, Kuhn UK’s managing director. “Working with, and having easy access to, a supportive and dedicated dealer is a primary consideration for farmers and contractors. We’ve been proactive to ensure any impact felt by our customers, in light of these announcements, is minimal.”

RVW Pugh business manager Emma Pugh describes the addition of the Kuhn franchise as a hugely positive move across its four depots. “Some of our sales and support technicians are former Malpas Tractors employees, and as such possess a wealth of knowledge and experience with all Kuhn machines,” she says. “This should give customers the confidence that we’re fully able to provide a first-class level of sales and aftersales support right from the outset.”
