Krone UK has announced that it will close Krone Forage Solutions, the company’s own retail facility, on the 30th of November 2025. It comes as part of its commitment to invest in, and strengthen, its dealer network in the UK.
Marcus Oliver, managing director at Krone UK, commented: “Krone Forage Solutions was established to demonstrate our confidence in the Krone brand and ensure a local presence during a key stage in our UK development in the absence of an independent dealer option. It has served its purpose extremely well.
“Today, our national network of dedicated and highly capable dealers is stronger than ever. With this in mind, we are now shifting our focus entirely to supporting our independent dealer partners – enabling them to thrive, grow and deliver outstanding value to our shared customers. Other than the planned closure of KFS, there are no other intended changes to our distribution model.”
The company is working with affected staff and customers to manage the transition in the coming months and ensure continued access to the machinery portfolio, parts and service support. It adds that there will be no change to any existing formal agreements or commitments made to customers or suppliers.
