Opico has announced the appointment of Dean Cottey as UK product manager for the Strautmann brand. Dean joined the company at the start of the year as territory manager for the southwest, having spent 14 years with Claas UK.
“I feel being appointed as the Strautmann Product Manager for the UK has also been a real achievement and is the perfect fit for my personal experience, growing up on the dairy farm, forage wagons and feeders have been a huge part of my life.
“I’m looking forward to continuing to develop the brand and product offering here in the UK. In the short time I’ve been with Opico we have already launched a new professional Verti-Mix diet feeder range increasing the overall offering from Strautmann.”
James Woolway, Opico managing director commented: “Dean has been a great addition to the Opico team, his knowledge of agricultural machinery is excellent and his in-depth practical knowledge and experience enables him to relate to customers.”
