    The Merlo Green Network of agricultural dealers has been extended with the appointment of Collings Brothers of Abbotsely Ltd, which will offer the Merlo agricultural range across the counties of Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and Northamptonshire.

    “Founded in 1930, Collings Brothers have established over many decades an envious reputation for customer service,” said Owen Buttle, national sales manager at Merlo UK. “We are extremely pleased to welcome them to the nationwide network of Merlo agricultural dealers.”

    Operating out of depots at Abbotsely, Cambridgeshire, and Brigstock, Northamptonshire, Collings Brothers are well placed to support existing and potential Merlo customers.

    Technical, parts and product training is already underway for the Collings Brothers team, and a comprehensive stock of genuine Merlo spare parts have been placed in both depots. This will be further backed up by next deliveries from Merlo’s UK parts warehouse.

    “The Collings Brothers team are excited to be working with Merlo again. Collings Brothers have a long-standing relationship with Merlo and look forward to supporting existing and new customers. Our aftersales team have experience and knowledge going back many years, Collings Brothers pride ourselves on the backup we provide from our Abbotsley and Brigstock depots, our priority is to ensure we give customers an excellent service in aftersales and sales. Our sales team look forward to offering this extensive range of handlers and are looking forward to getting out into the field demonstrating,” said Jason Weston, managing director of Collings Brothers.
