Norwood has announced the opening of a new Tasman dealership at Richmond near Nelson next month.

Norwood Tasman will operate alongside the Norwood Blenheim dealership, with both locations will be managed by Emily Simpson, the current dealership manager in Blenheim.

Norwood Tasman will be the authorised dealer for Kubota agriculture, lifestyle, and construction equipment in the Tasman region, complemented by its other major brands including Landini, Kuhn, Väderstad, Breviagri, Sky Agriculture, Vredo, Ferrari, Greenworks, and Croplands.

“This new dealership reflects Norwood’s long-term commitment of investing in regional New Zealand and ensuring customers nationwide have local access to the expertise, service, and support they rely on,” says John Skurr, general manager, CB Norwood Distributors.

“This site will strengthen our presence in the top of the South Island and allow us to better support our existing customers while building new relationships in the area.”
