Waringa has arrived in New Zealand and is quickly gearing up to fully support producers across the country with some of the world’s leading brands.
Part of a diversified farming group, Waringa Distribution thoroughly appraises and paddock-tests machinery brands prior to their market introduction and before assisting operators with full support and parts backup.
Sam said Waringa Distribution had been looking to further grow and expand into New Zealand, but this had been hampered by the global supply chain conditions in recent years.
However, it has since appointed well-respected local industry identity, Chris Tricker, to lead its operations in New Zealand and has established freight, assembly, warehousing and parts distribution locations in both the North and South islands.
Prior to relocating to Marlborough in recent years and working on the South Island, he was involved in sales and operations management, consulting and contracting, including with CLAAS Harvest Centre, in the Waikato region.
Waringa is the exclusive distributor for Agri-Spread fertiliser and muck spreaders, Gregoire Besson tillage and soil structuring equipment, Highline rock handling and hay bale processing equipment, and Broughan Engineering trailers in New Zealand. Waringa anticipates further grain grower interest in Geringhoff header fronts and Elmer’s chaser bins.
Waringa looks forward to adding to its team and resources in New Zealand, including appointing potential dealers, as well as flying the flag and developing relationships with producers.
Proof of placement with product applications will drive adoption of these technologies into the future. The level of technology with the Agri-Spread spreaders is excellent. It offers full section control on a 36-metre spreader and that is almost unheard of.
