    (l-r) Mike Pickering, Area Sales Manager at Ripon Farm Services with the dealer’s Commercial Director, Richard Simpson, Mazzotti’s Export Manager Vincenzo Gasperi and Ripon’s Technology Specialist, Jack Forman alongside Mark James, John Deere Crop Care Specialist.

    Ripon Farm Services has been awarded the UK Dealer of the Year Award for 2021 by Mazzotti. It recognises overall performance and dedication to the brand.

    In 2018, Ripon become one of the first Mazzotti dealers in the UK and has shown outstanding commitment to the self-propelled sprayer product line. The award was handed out in person by export manager Vincenzo Gasperi during a recent visit.

    Richard Simpson, commercial director of Ripon Farm Services, said: “We are absolutely delighted to win this award. It underlines the hard work we’ve put into promoting Mazzotti. We’ve put a lot of effort into launching the sprayers, not only to demonstrate the benefits of these machines but also to support the customers with what is, after all, a new brand in the UK market.

    “The entire Ripon Farm Services team can feel very proud of this, although a special mention has to go to our team at Market Weighton and, in particular, Area Sales Manager Mike Pickering, who really has gone the extra mile.

    “The Mazzotti product really does seem to hit the mark for our customers. The UK-friendly design with integrated John Deere systems and components is a winning combination that offers not only great performance but good value for money.”

    Mr Gasperi said: “We are very happy with the performance of Ripon Farm Services and it’s great to reward its hard work. As a new brand in the market, we have to find a place on UK farms, so strong partners who are committed to growing the business and to making sure the customer is happy is very important to us.”
