Carr's Billington expands Massey Ferguson territory into South East Scotland

Carr's Billington has expanded its Massey Ferguson dealer territory to include South East Scotland, covering the Borders and Lothian regions.

The move increases the company's trading area for Massey Ferguson products by a claimed 10% and builds on an existing relationship with the brand spanning more than 30 years. Carr's Billington will continue to operate its eight depots in northern England and Scotland and says its existing team is well placed to support customers in the newly acquired region, with further recruitment planned.

Machinery sales and support will initially be handled from the company's Morpeth depot, with plans to add an additional depot in the area in the future.

The region was previously managed by Scot Agri, which will continue as a Massey Ferguson dealer in other parts of Scotland, with its Kelso depot remaining active during the transition period.
