    Manitou UK has announced that George Browns will sell and support its lineup of agricultural equipment, including telehandlers, skidsteers and track loaders, as well as industrial fork trucks.

    The dealer will be responsible for a significant territory, covering Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire and Hertfordshire.

    Steve Brown, managing director at George Browns, commented: “Being appointed as an agricultural dealer for Manitou UK from January 2026 is a significant and positive step for George Browns. Manitou has a strong reputation for producing reliable, practical loading solutions that are well-suited to the demands of UK farming, and its product range sits naturally alongside the brands we already represent.

    “As a family-run business, we place huge importance on after-sales support, parts availability, and building long-term relationships with our customers. This partnership enables us to offer a broader, more complete solution to farmers and contractors across our territory, supported by our experienced teams and established depot network.”

    Peter Smyth, sales director at Manitou UK, added: “Manitou UK is delighted to welcome George Browns into the Manitou family. They have a long-standing history in agricultural machinery sales, but more importantly, service is at the heart of their operation.

    With their culture of dedicated customer support and satisfaction, we look forward to building a lasting partnership. Managing director, Stephen Brown, is a proactive leader who will be instrumental in driving the brand forward. We are excited to work together to grow our extensive product range—from telescopic handlers and loaders to industrial fork trucks and heavy-duty loading shovels—all of which are tailored specifically for the UK agricultural market.”
