Howardson Group Strengthens Scottish Availability

A family-run business with more than 90 years of experience, Hamilton Ross Group has enjoyed a long partnership with Howardson Group, having stocked Dennis and SISIS equipment for the last 20 years.

The extension of this partnership will now allow Hamilton Ross Group to expand its existing sales territory for Dennis and SISIS products in the West of Scotland to the central regions of Stirlingshire, Fife, and Perthshire.

Hamilton Ross Group’s portfolio spans the full Dennis range, allowing the company to meet all manner of groundcare needs across landscaping and sport, and includes the new ES-34SL lightweight battery mower from the Dennis E-Series. The company also supplies the full range of SISIS maintenance equipment, allowing end-to-end groundcare requirements to be met through a single dealer.

The move forms part of Howardson Group’s strategic growth plan, which aims to bring the company closer to its customers through the improved availability of local sales, servicing, and after-sales support across the UK.

Hamilton Ross Group is a historic company that shares Howardson Group’s commitment to customers, for the long term. The business’ journey began in 1933, when the two Hamilton brothers started selling bicycles, cars and lorries from their base of operations in Paisley. Since then, the firm has grown largely through a series of key acquisitions. Notably, it took over Daniel Ross of Lanark in 1978, Tarbolton in 1981 and Reekie in 2016, gaining new contracts with brands, divisions and staff expertise on each occasion. Today, the firm stands as a one-stop shop for six whole business divisions, with a particular focus on the agricultural market.

Ewen Wilson, Area Sales Manager for Howardson Group, said: “Scotland is a vital region for us as a business, so we’re delighted to be expanding our support for our customers there through Hamilton Ross Group.

“We have already enjoyed a fantastic relationship with Hamilton Ross Group to date, who have done an exemplary job of providing Dennis and SISIS products across the West of Scotland. Given this, it made perfect sense to extend our sales area with them ever further, and I have every confidence that this new phase of our partnership will be every bit as successful as everything that’s come before.”

Andy Gillies, Groundcare Sales Manager at Hamilton Ross Group, said: “We are delighted to have the opportunity to build on our already successful territory and strengthen our excellent working relationship with the entire team at Howardson Group.

“Their extensive product range allows us to reach a broad customer base across the groundcare industry, offering quality machinery and solutions that align perfectly with the values on which our business has been built.

“We look forward to continuing to grow the brand across the territory, while supporting our longstanding customers and building strong relationships with new customers. We are excited about the opportunities ahead and look forward to working closely with the team at Howardson Group to achieve continued growth and success.”
