UK JCB distributor - Gunn JCB has set up a new company ‘Midlands JCB’ to cover key areas of the English midlands region.
The new company, which was registered last July, will take over three Gunn locations - Smethwick, Stoke-on-Trent, and Hereford and operate as a standalone operation as the primary JCB construction dealer for the West Midlands, Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Herefordshire, and Worcestershire.

We look forward to working with new and existing customers to provide exceptional products and service, focusing on outstanding local support.”
Alistair Reekie added: "We want to assure our customers that this change will not affect the quality of service they receive from their local JCB dealer, who will continue to receive exceptional service from our team.”
