Paul Rowe of Emmetts Warracknabeal said he looked forward to the opportunity of selling products to district construction businesses as well as being a supplier of the service and parts options.
“Most of the suppliers of compact construction equipment are in the capital cities or larger regional centres,” he said.
“This should save customers travel and downtime.”
Emmetts group marketing and strategy manager Avril Hogan said having this equipment allowed the company to reach out to an industry it had not traditionally been heavily involved with.
“Now councils, plumbers, pool contractors and electricians have new options for locally supplied equipment,” she said.
“We all know the importance of uptime in keeping parts in stock locally and for customers to know there are local mechanics available if there is a breakdown, or to provide regular maintenance.”
Ms Hogan said an interesting observation in providing the new range was the amount of interest from regional areas across South Australia as well as western Victoria.
“What we had not expected was how many regional people buy out of Melbourne or Bendigo and Ballarat, and are excited to provide a local option,” she said.
Emmetts taps into 60 years of experience and maintains its traditional catch-cry to ‘keep farmers farming’.
