Young Plant Sales Increases North Scotland Coverage With New Depot

Construction News Image
Young Plant Sales has expanded its coverage in the north of Scotland with a new depot in Inverness.

The new premises officially opened in Tore, Inverness, on 05 October.

It builds on the coverage provided by the long-established base in Doune, Stirlingshire. It will provide a base to offer customers across Northern Scotland with local sales, parts and service facilities. The Inverness depot will be stocked with all the machines and parts from the ever-growing Young Plant Sales product range, including market leading brands such as Kubota, Thwaites and Bomag, as well as recent additions to the range including Kobelco and Sennebogen.

Since the acquisition by Molson Group in 2016, there have been plans for significant growth both in product range and additional depots. The addition of Kobelco excavators, Dieci Telehandlers and Bergmann Dumpers on the construction equipment range was the first step. This was soon followed by the addition of a full recycling equipment product range including Terex Ecotec shredders, trommel screens and chippers, Sennebogen wood and material handlers and TrommALL compact screening equipment. The addition of the Inverness depot provides a local platform to build on the successes that have already been achieved in the area.

Brian Young, Young Plant Sales Managing Director said: "We are all delighted to have the new depot open for business. With the latest recruit to our growing sales team, Angus Innes and his longstanding counterpart Ross McKay covering the area I am confident we will offer the same high standards our customers have come to expect from our Doune depot."

Jonathan Wilson, Molson Group joint Managing Director added: "The Inverness depot is a key part of the groups growth strategy. Young Plant Sales are well established after trading for over 40 years, building a reputation for offering market leading brands and delivering high levels of service. This additional depot puts us on the doorstep for customers across Northern Scotland, offering great products and backup they can rely on."

Official open days have been scheduled at the new depot on 09-10 November, where everyone is welcome to visit the new location and see Young Plant Sales' wide range of new and used equipment.
