HAYNES AGRICULTURAL STRENGTHENS ITS FUTURE WITH COMPLETION OF CNH NETWORK EXPANSION STRATEGY



Haynes Agricultural Ltd. is set to reach another significant milestone in its long-term growth strategy with the transfer of the property, assets and trade of Ernest Doe Power’s Case IH Agricultural business at Ringmer, East Sussex, to Haynes Brothers Ltd, the holding company of Haynes Agricultural, further strengthening the Haynes agricultural machinery operations across the South East.

As part of this development, Haynes Agricultural will relocate its existing Uckfield agricultural operations to the more modern Ringmer facility planned for 6th November 2026. The move will bring together the expertise and resources of the two operations, creating a stronger base from which to support agricultural customers across East and West Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire, Isle of Wight and the entirety of Kent.

The move, together with our recently dual-branded Great Chart depot, and the planned dual branding of our Wrotham Heath and Horsham depots, will create a stronger regional network, giving customers access to both CNH brands – New Holland and Case IH – alongside JCB, supported by our established sales, parts and service teams.

The acquisition forms part of Haynes Agricultural Ltd’s wider strategy with CNH to develop a stronger and more integrated CNH dealer network across the South East. Haynes has progressively expanded its agricultural operations in recent years, including the integration of the Ernest Doe Power agricultural business at Woodchurch, Ashford and the acquisition of the Mike Garwood Ltd agricultural businesses in Alton and on the Isle of Wight.

James Broadley, Managing Director of Haynes Agricultural Ltd., commented:

“The acquisition of the Ringmer business will be the final part of the jigsaw in creating the business we have been working towards for several years. It completes our dual-branded CNH strategy and gives us a strong, sustainable platform for the future. The agricultural industry continues to evolve rapidly, and this investment ensures we are well placed to continue adapting, investing and supporting our customers for many years to come.”

Adrian Woods, Director of Agricultural Operations at Haynes Agricultural Ltd., added:

“This is an exciting development for our agricultural team and, most importantly, for our customers in East Sussex.The Ringmer facility will give us an excellent opportunity to bring together experienced people, resources and product expertise in one location. Customers will benefit from access to both New Holland and Case IH agricultural machinery, as well as JCB, supported by our established parts and service teams.While the Uckfield site will close as part of the move, our commitment to our customers in the area remains exactly the same. We will continue to provide the high standards of service, parts and technical support that customers have come to expect from Haynes Agricultural. In addition, we look forward to working with the existing team at Ringmer to help build on their success and also, most importantly, to welcoming customers to Ringmer and to further strengthening the relationships we have both developed in the area.”

Further information about the Ringmer facility, including contact details and the date of the relocation, will be communicated to customers ahead of the move.
