Hyundai backs new Scots dealer to boost its presence north of the border

HYUNDAI Construction Equipment has tipped its new Scottish dealer to offer customers the “very highest levels” of service.

Agritrac Exports succeeded Young Plant Sales as Hyundai dealer for Scotland as of January 2019 and will offer the full range of Hyundai kit north of the border, including mini-excavators.

Agritrac, which is part of agricultural machinery specialist HRN Tractors, has seven depots across Scotland and employs 35 service technicians. The company has added two dedicated construction sales specialists to its sales team, including Leigh Dalglish, who has previously worked at Young Plant and John H McNae.

Tony Reeves, Hyundai’s regional sales manager for UK and Ireland said, “As part of HRN Tractors, Agritrac offers a well established network of depots across Scotland which will offer our Hyundai customers the very highest levels of service, parts and sales provision. Agritrac have a fantastic reputation across Scotland for excellent service backup, which is essential in providing ‘added value’ and ‘peace of mind’ to Scottish operators of our products.

“Agritrac will also be a ‘full line’ dealer, which is a first for the Hyundai brand in Scotland, offering customers mini-excavators as well as heavy line and wheel loaders. We are delighted to launch this partnership with Agritrac and are confident that this will positively boost our presence in the Scottish market.”

Stuart Barclay, Agritrac Exports director added, “We are very much looking forward to working with Hyundai and we see this partnership as a great opportunity to raise the profile of the brand in Scotland. Hyundai manufacture a vast range of products and through our many depots across Scotland we are confident that we will be selling to a wide range of our existing customers and securing new customers. All backed up with an excellent parts and back-up service – which we have built our reputation on in the region.”
