Norwood has imported and distributed Kuhn machinery since 2007, but until now the brand has only been sold through three of Norwood’s 21 dealerships.
With immediate effect, Norwood customers will have greater access to Kuhn’s cultivation, seeding and grassland machinery, with the brand being available at additional Norwood dealership locations throughout the country.
The expanded footprint will include the Norwood dealerships in Hawera, Hastings, Marlborough, the West Coast, Christchurch, and Mosgiel, while Norwood Hamilton will support Norwood Taupo with Kuhn sales and service.
“Kuhn is a leading manufacturer of forage harvesting, livestock management, and cultivation machinery familiar to New Zealand’s farmers,” says Rod Gardner, Norwood’s national product manager.
“Their equipment will add coverage to Norwood’s portfolio, particularly in the hay and harvesting product lines.
“Norwood regularly reviews its product portfolio to ensure the brands it represents deliver the most benefit to the NZ farmers, so new products like the VBP 7190 combi baler, offer versatility and numerous options that will be well received more easily for our customers,” says Gardner.
The existing dealer network remains unchanged and will continue to serve existing Kuhn customers.
