LMS Lincoln Ltd of Wellingore near Lincoln, the family-owned grounds care business, has been appointed the Wiedenmann UK dealer for the region. Their territory encompasses all of Lincolnshire, from the Humber in the north to the Wash in the south, and strengthens the dealer network in the east of England.

LMS began trading in 1954 from premises in nearby Welbourn, moved to its current location in 1973 and in 1981 saw further expansion, doubling the size of its premises when new workshops and office suites where added.

A well respected name in the area, they represent numerous well-known industry brands including Ransomes Jacobsen, Atco, Allen, Hayter, Honda, Mountfield, , Ryobi and Stiga.

Commenting on their appointment managing director Chris Overton said, "We are delighted to have been appointed as the Wiedenmann dealer for this area of the UK. The Terra Spike range of deep aerators, including the latest i-series machines, is the best on the market today; add to this their blowers, rotary decks and grass collectors and we have a product offering that dovetails with our other grounds care equipment. We are now in an excellent position to provide an enhanced service to the grounds care industry across Lincolnshire."

Bruce Alexander, Territory Manager at Wiedenmann UK added, "We extend a very warm welcome to Chris and his team. They have first-class showroom and after sales facilities at Wellingore and are renowned for their high service levels, something that is expected by our customers. We look forward to a long and mutually beneficial working partnership."
