Members of AtlasFram Group are now able to benefit from exclusive rebates on the full range of machinery products from Spearhead Machinery.
“The rebate scheme is an exclusive arrangement that provides AtlasFram Group’s 1250 members, who collectively farm more than 350,000 hectares, with rebates that they could not otherwise be able to obtain on new Spearhead products purchased through the official UK dealer network. This provides additional and valuable financial savings on equipment from this well-respected manufacturer,” states Simon Scott, Machinery Buyer for AtlasFram.
Spearhead Machinery is Europe’s leading manufacturer of large area rotary mowers and specialises in vegetation maintenance/stubble management technology. The company’s extensive product range, which has been developed through years of innovation, now includes reach mowers, rotary mowers, rotary mulchers and flail mowers.
AtlasFram Group’s Machinery Scheme, the largest, most successful of its type in the UK, is a key part of its service to members. During the last 12 months alone the cooperative has purchased more than £11 million of agricultural machinery on behalf of members, who benefit from a range of fleet partnerships with a range of agricultural equipment manufacturers.
AtlasFram’s long-running fleet deal with Case IH, for example, is the largest of its type in Europe, while other leading farm machinery suppliers include Amazone and Toyota Materials Handling. A special finance package enables members to benefit from competitive rates and spread the cost of new and second-hand machinery purchases.
To benefit from the preferential terms which AtlasFram negotiates on their behalf members simply submit a copy of the dealer’s invoice to the Group. Rebates on larger purchases, which can run into thousands of pounds and regularly exceed the annual cost of AtlasFram Membership, are in addition to any cost savings that members make on their farm input purchases, including machinery and spare parts.
AtlasFram members also benefit from access to a team of in-house product specialists who provide completely impartial, expert advice on a wide range of farming-related issues, advise when to place orders to obtain the best discounts and ensure that products are delivered on time, to the right location. Members receive just one monthly invoice showing all purchases, which further reduces the time and cost of administration.
