East of England takes to Takeuchi

Takeuchi’s dealer for the East of England – Burdens Construction, have converted even more hire companies to Takeuchi in recent months. Burdens only started the Takeuchi dealership earlier in 2007, and Takeuchi’s have grown in popularity in the area.

P J Lee, based in Bungay Norfolk, has added an additional TB016 and a TB108 mini excavator to the plant hire fleet. They join the 2 Takeuchi TB016 purchased earlier this year.

It’s quite a conversion for PJ Lee; the former Kubota fleet has now been replaced entirely with Takeuchi minis and is firmly put down to the growing popularity and reliability in the fleet, “Reliability in a plant hire fleet is key and Takeuchi just haven’t let us down” PJ Lee owner, Peter Lee

Lee Hagan Burdens Sales Manager : “For every plant hire firm or contractor service and reliability of machines on site are so important. Takeuchi mini excavators have a great reputation. They are getting more and more popular with operators as an easy drive. A comfy cab where the machine rather than the operator takes the strain makes for a more comfortable customer”

More success with Burdens includes FTC Hire & Sales of Fakenham who have expanded their hire fleet with an additional 5 Takeuchi minis in all sizes up to 3 tonne. Burdens successful first year as a Takeuchi dealer for the east has certainly grown the Takeuchi sales in the region.

“The appointment of strong regional dealers provides that local level support and service and makes all the difference. Takeuchi’s added dealer coverage over the last 12 months means Takeuchi’s are now reaching new areas and new applications all over the UK" says Tony Tite UK Sales Manager.
