Andrew Dobson will focus on the Massey Ferguson, Kubota, Manitou, Bomag and Thwaites franchises held by P. V. Dobson, and will remain involved with the Fendt too.With a combined 69 years experience as Fendt dealers the new partnership will supply the full range of Fendt products including tracked and wheeled tractors, combines, self-propelled forage harvesters, sprayers, large square and round balers, and a range of grassland equipment including mowers, tedders, and rakes.
“This partnership represents two strong dealerships coming together to provide excellent support and focus on the Fendt brand,” says Andrew Dobson, Managing Director at P.V. Dobson.
“It gives us a wider footprint across the North, continuity of service for our customers, and the combined expertise to support the full range of tractors and machinery available from the brand,” he adds.
“We are proud of our long history as a dedicated Fendt dealer,” says Peter Swales.
“Partnering with P.V. Dobson allows us to strengthen that tradition while ensuring customers continue to receive the premium level of service we are both renowned for. Ultimately, we will focus on strengthening the Fendt brand in the North of England by working together,” he concludes.
