In 2023 we sold our 7000th new Kubota excavator and continue to sell their market leading products. In the early years, Winget was one of the first brands we represented. We still represent them today, as is the case with our many longstanding manufacturer relationships. Merlo is the most recent addition to join our ever-evolving product range.
Our engineers are all factory trained to ensure the highest level of support for the machines we sell. We offer both on-site and inhouse repairs and servicing.
We also have a very well stocked Parts Department which ensures customers’ downtime is kept to a minimum. Our 50 years of experience selling machines and parts has given us the knowledge to source spares for many of the older machines we have sold.
Shellplant’s friendly, helpful team of loyal people is the key to our success. We continue to bring younger members on board to learn the ‘Shellplant way of doing business’ to help us evolve and grow, while also offering our first-class service going forward.
Our policies have given us the financial stability and in-house skills to ensure we can offer leading brands of equipment with confidence at competitive prices.
Our history and experience alongside our market leading product portfolio underpin our continued support to you – our valued customer
