Valtra have appointed two new dealers: Shire Agri-Hires and Cam Engineering in South West Scotland.
Taking over the area for Valtra between Newton Stewart and Dumfries is CAM Engineering. Established just five years ago by husband and wife partnership Clive and Jennifer Montgomery, the company sells and services a wide range of new and used agricultural and industrial equipment and plant. CAM Engineering moved to their current premises at Greenlaw Business Park, Castle Douglas in early 2007 and here sales and service are handled by Clive assisted by two engineers, while Jennifer controls the office and parts department. CAM Engineering can be reached on 01556 504053.
Shire Agri-Hires, located at Bridgemill Business Park, Glen Luce, some 10 miles from Stranraer, is responsible for south west Galloway from Girvan in the north to Newton Stewart in the east. Established in 1994 by Tom and his father Ken McKie,
Shire Agri-Hires has been steadily developing the sale of used and new farm machinery alongside their thriving plant and farm machinery hire and transport businesses. "The sale of new tractors is a logical progression in our development and from previous experiences we know the Valtra product as reliable and one suitable for farmers in this area," says Tom. Tom and Claire McKie can be contacted on 01581 300360.
Valtra regional manager Martyn Atkinson commented; "We’re please to appoint both CAM Engineering and Shire Agri-Hires as Valtra tractor dealers in south west Scotland. The two companies fill a gap left by a previous dealer who had decided to cease selling new tractors."
