    Crawfords Group takes on the Opico range

    Opico has announced the appointment of Crawfords Group to its dealer network. Established in Essex in 1980, the firm has since expanded to seven depots across Kent, Sussex, Surrey and Hampshire and has been a key AGCO dealer since 2001.

    Wes Crawford, managing director at Crawfords Group commented: “We are a family-run business. Maintaining our high level of customer service and company values is as important today as it was 40 years ago.

    “We’ve found that OPICO’s vision aligns with our own and, of course, it helps that they offer a premium machinery portfolio to complement our existing range! Our team are really looking forward to learning about the machines and can’t wait to demonstrate them to our customers.”

    “Working with Crawfords is a win-win situation,” said Charles Bedforth, sales director for Opico. “A cornerstone in our strategy is to partner with leading dealers throughout the country. In Wes and his team, we believe we will create a long-term relationship for the benefit of both companies but especially for Crawford and Agwood customers.”

    Crawfords will sell Opico grain dryers, mechanical weeders, arable and grassland equipment, alongside the HE-VA cultivation and grassland ranges, Sky drills (from the Agwoods depot only) and Strautmann forage and feeding wagons.
