HRN TRACTORS APPOINTED BY KUBOTA

With effect from 17 September 2020 HRN Tractors Ltd has been appointed by Kubota (UK) Ltd as a full-line dealer for Scotland across its six depots.

HRN have featured in the industry news this summer, having recently announced their split from John Deere following 40 years.

The dealership will now represent Kubota construction equipment for all of Scotland, whilst its agricultural products will be available for depots north of Perth, with groundcare and professional turf products for the region north of Dundee.

“This appointment reinforces Kubota’s commitment to its customers and the market,” explained David Hart, managing director of Kubota (UK). “As a full-line dealer, HRN Tractors will be in a strong position to make the future investments required in facilities, technology and staff, to actively support our customers across agricultural, groundcare and construction sectors.”

HRN Tractors was established by the Barclay family in 1980. In addition to its extensive dealership activities, the family also farms across 2,000 acres of combinable crops and is home to the pedigree Harestone herd. With its head office at Insch, they have depots at Turriff, Kinloss, Muir of Ord, Caithness and Balbeggie.

“HRN is delighted to have received the Kubota franchise,” says Hamish Bruce, dealer principal of HRN Tractors. “It supplies us with a wide range of agricultural, construction and groundcare products to sell to our growing customer base. We believe that Kubota has massive potential for market growth in Scotland, and that HRN and Kubota have a very bright future together.”
