Dealer invests in business

Dealers GGM Groundscare, say they have made a £60k investment in two new professional blade grinding machines from Foley, for their Haydock depot.

The investment comes as the dealership reports seeing significant growth in the golf and fine turf areas of the business with both Baroness and Dennis machinery. This has led to a requirement for the organisation to double their grinding capacity and it is now able to offer grinding at both its Colne and Haydock depots.

GGM say with the new investment, they believe customers will benefit even more, with improved response times, back up support and a high quality of grinding, resulting in blades that are returned to good as new condition.

Managing director Chris Gibson said, "As a company, we are committed to offering an excellent after sales offering and this investment means customers can reap the benefits of premium grinding and get a first-class level of cut.

"We recognise that an important factor in achieving a first-class quality of cut is to ensure blades are kept in optimum condition with precision relief grinding, something that is essential to golf clubs. This investment will allow us to offer this service to even more golf clubs."

GGM Groundscare have installed the two new grinders at its Haydock branch. One is the Foley 633 Accu-Pro, the other is Foley's 673 Automatic Bedknife Grinder.

Chris Gibson continued. "Following our previous investment in our two Foley Grinders at our Colne depot in 2018, we quickly saw an upturn in the efficiency and demand of our blade grinding offering.

"This investment is on the back of our commitment in growing and developing our Haydock depot offering and the two new Foley grinders enable us to offer our Merseyside and Cheshire based customers a local first-class service with a quicker turn-around. Foley grinders return blades to manufacturer standard and provide customers with unmatched results."
