BOBCAT has appointed a new dealer for the Highlands and Islands, Aberdeenshire and Perthshire regions of Scotland.

Inverness-based MacGregor Industrial Supplies will offer the manufacturer’s entire range of machines and attachments, as well as a full selection of genuine accessories and parts.

The move comes shortly after the dealer purchased Balgownie, the previous Bobcat supplier, adding staff with vast knowledge and expertise of the brand. 

John Christofides, regional sales director for Bobcat, said: “We believe our new collaboration with MacGregor Industrial Supplies will be very positive for both companies in the North of Scotland. 

“With over 300 employees and eight branches in the North, MacGregor Industrial Supplies is an impressive business with a wide array of products and services spanning every market in Scotland. I am sure that the Bobcat brand will continue to prosper in the North of Scotland under the stewardship of MacGregor Industrial Supplies.” 

MacGregor Industrial Supplies is a provider of industrial supplies and equipment in the North of Scotland, offering a wide range of products and services across the company’s 17 separate divisions, including those in construction, forest and groundcare, and fencing and agriculture. 

In addition to the Inverness headquarters, MacGregor Industrial Supplies has seven further branches in Aberdeen, Elgin, Inverurie, Kirkwall, Portree, Stornoway and Turriff. 

“We are excited to become an Authorised Bobcat Dealer,” said John MacGregor, managing director at MacGregor Industrial Supplies. “Under the management of my colleagues, Douglas Fraser and Keith Bremner, I’m sure the Bobcat brand will be even more successful in Scotland. Our team’s extensive experience with Bobcat equipment, combined with our dedication to exceptional customer service, positions us to deliver even greater value to our Bobcat customers.”
