ANDREW Drew, fourth from left, of Bobcat Midlands, which is based in Little Witley, near Worcester, recently attended the Siromer Tractors dealer conference, held at Myerscough College, Preston, Lancashire.

Company director Jeff Howard welcomed both UK and European Siromer dealers, together with a delegation of Chinese representatives from their Shanghai based parent company, the Jiangsu Yueda Yancheng Tractor Manufacturing Company Ltd.

The Siromer Tractor is unique - it arrives in the UK and offered for sale in a flatpack, self-assemble form.

Sales of Siromer Compact Tractors are growing year-on-year and have been accompanied by very positive feedback from both Siromer dealers and customers.

"We enjoy an excellent working relationship with our Chinese partners and all of our dealers," said Mr Howard. "This exclusive contract will enable us to make even more improvements to our tractors.

This means that we will be able to continue to offer our dealers and customers a product that is outstanding both in looks, quality and reliability, whist keeping the price within the range of even the most modest budget.

"We anticipate increased growth in sales for 2006."

Siromer dealers are now able to offer an assembly service for customers who prefer their new Siromer Tractor built and ready for action.
