    Will Davies has joined Simon Richard Ltd as the southern area sales manager.

    Commenting on the new hire, Simon Richard said: “Will has a huge wealth of knowledge and respect within the agricultural and groundcare markets. I first met him twenty-eight years ago when we were both working for a batwing and flail manufacturer. He then went to work for a John Deere dealer and since then has been working with another manufacturer whose range also included batwings and flail wowers.

    “We as a company are known for our range of flail mowers and batwings so Will’s wealth of knowledge and experience is a perfect fit to expand sales in our Muthing flail and mower range, the market leading range of Reform banking tractors and our new and exciting heavy duty Sauerburger batwing rotary mowers.”
