We’re delighted to announce the recent appointment of Alastair Dixon as Area Sales Manager for our Argyll and Western Isles customers. Many of you will know Alastair who hails from 3rd generation farming stock having grown up on Killinochonoch Farm, Lochgilphead. On leaving school he studied land engineering for a year at Barony College, Dumfries prior to securing a three year apprenticeship at Hamilton Brothers, qualifying as an Agricultural engineer.
“It’s a new year and a new career for me and I’m really excited about this challenge” says Alastair. “It’s a fantastic opportunity to go back to my roots and put my passion for agricultural machinery and technical ability to the test”. Since taking up his new role just prior to the end of the year Alastair has been busy catching up with customers all up the west coast from Oban, Mull and Tiree to Lochaber, Kintyre, North and South Uist and even Benbecula and Barra!
So what’s his top selling agricultural machinery so far? “I’ve been doing a roaring trade in Watson Feed Trailers, probably because they’re well built but don’t break the bank!” He is also following up many enquiries about our limited stock of Massey Ferguson 5610’s we featured in our ‘Farming Matters’ magazine in December. These machines are the ultimate stockman tractor for mixed, livestock and arable farmers in the West of Scotland and we’re currently offering savings of £2,000 on last year’s prices. Read more. Alternatively, we are also offering a fantastic deal with 0% finance on the Valtra A93 tractor and loader which comes with many extras including air conditioning and air seats.
For more details on these great 2015 deals, or for advice on any of our fantastic range of agricultural products, simply give Alastair a call on 07771 577889.
