Adam Butler, sales director of Baroness adds, “It’s very exciting times for Baroness. To stay in line with our company’s business plan for the continued growth of Baroness & AgriMetal products in the UK, and our association with other Japanese made products. We really feel our new partnership with Henton & Chattell is a great fit for all and very much look forward to working with the whole team. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the team at PS Marsden, who have done a fantastic job supporting Baroness in the area over the past few years, and wish them all the very best for the future.”

Baroness, renowned for its high-quality mowers and meticulous craftsmanship by Japanese engineers, has gained recognition worldwide for delivering impressive cutting quality.

“We are excited to be joining the Baroness dealer network later this year,” said Peter Chaloner, Managing Director of Henton & Chattell. “Baroness machinery is well-regarded for its market-leading cut quality and impressive blade durability, which has led to a growing number of golf courses making the switch to Baroness. Additionally, the shorter lead times on deliveries from Japan present a major advantage for our customers.”

As a family business with strong roots in Nottingham, Henton & Chattell takes immense pride in its 85-strong workforce. The company is actively engaged in developing its presence in golf course, ground care, and agricultural markets.
