The Scot JCB Group is combining Kelso & Lothian Harvesters and A M Phillip Agritech to form a new agricultural division called Scot Agri.

The new division will provide machinery sales, service and parts from JCB, Massey Ferguson, Valtra, Horsch, Ktwo, Vicon across its six depots in the north east of Scotland and two depots in the Scottish borders.

Current Scot JCB agricultural depots will be dual-branded with Scot Agri for agricultural products and Scot JCB for construction products.

“The rebranding of Kelso & Lothian Harvesters and A M Phillip Agritech to Scot Agri unifies our agricultural companies under one brand while maintaining the same industry-leading service we have always provided,” commented Robin Bryant, joint managing director at the Scot JCB Group, which is made up of Scot JCB, Scot Agri, Stewart Plant Sales and Scot Industrial Air.

Operating from a network of 20 depots from Carnforth in the north west of England to Fraserburgh in the north east of Scotland, the company has over 120 factory-trained service engineers.
