Fineturf A Fine Choice: Reesink Turfcare has welcomed Fineturf Machinery as its new appointed dealer for Toro golf and fine turf machinery, Toro grounds machinery, and TYM tractors in the Lincolnshire and North Nottinghamshire areas.

Having been carefully chosen by Reesink, Fineturf Machinery steps into the role of dealer for the area vacated by Chris Sellars Groundcare, as Nigel Lovatt, regional manager at Reesink, explains: “We looked no further than Fineturf Machinery to take on this role. It is a company that is well established with a fantastic reputation and has expanded significantly in recent years. It has the same goals and ambitions as we do for the area and has invested in new staff to ensure these are achieved.”

Simon Hutton, managing director of Fineturf Machinery, says he is delighted to become an official Reesink dealer and service centre for Toro and TYM: “We’re looking forward to our association with Toro golf, groundscare and TYM products and hope our depth of knowledge across the golf, groundscare and sports turf industry will benefit new customers, with existing customers gaining direct access to more premium turfcare brands.”

Chris Sellars Groundcare will continue to work closely with Reesink to provide warranty support throughout the transition period, as Nigel confirms: “We enjoyed a good working relationship with Chris Sellars Groundcare for many years. But 2018 sees a change in direction for them, and us. Chris Sellars Groundcare, Reesink Turfcare and Fineturf Machinery will all work together to ensure a smooth transition period for customers, and we wish the greatest success to Chris Sellars with its future endeavours.”

New Cub Cadet Website: After months of designing and building, Cub Cadet has now launched its new website. The site has been created with the end user at the forefront of the design. It offers easier navigation and offers an enhanced user journey. The website is fully responsive, meaning that it looks just as great when viewed on smart phones and tablets as it does on a regular laptop or pc, and makes it easier for consumers to browse the site, even when they are on the go or even browsing in a dealer’s showroom.

Designed with the customer in mind, the site clearly defines the brand’s products and categories, with all existing products and new season models featured. Each product has a section on both the features and the specifications, making it simple for consumers to review and compare products.

The service and dealer locator pages guide people to locate their nearest dealer, and this is linked through from every product page. The new 2018 catalogue is also available to download, and there are informative pages on the history of the company and its many innovative designs, such as the xTreme Tight Turn and Cub Connect App.

The new website is a continued reflection of the importance that the company places on customer engagement and innovative design.

“We are pleased to launch our new, user-friendly website, which we are confident provides an enhanced customer experience and will further develop our reputation as being at the forefront of garden machinery innovations,” said Phil Noble, field sales and technical manager for Cub Cadet UK.

He added: “There is hardly a day without cricket at Kidderminster this season and, as always, to make that work requires an awful lot of time as well as investment.”

Mr Longmore’s hard work was acknowledged by the club, which presented him the Denis Jones Award for outstanding contribution behind the scenes in 2017 at the annual presentation last autumn.
