EP Barrus has extended its team with the appointment of Edward Staniland as area sales manager covering the Midlands and North Wales.
He will be responsible for the complete Barrus line-up of garden machinery and tools brands, including Cub Cadet, Lawnflite, MTD and Agri-Fab.

Mr Staniland brings over 12 years of garden machinery industry experience to his new role, in which he will be responsible for supporting dealers in all areas of their business including sales, business development and technical assistance. Before joining Barrus, he worked for his family's business, Brumwell Garden Machinery, in south west Wales.

"The broad experience that Edward gained working for his family's business has provided him with an inside knowledge of how dealerships work, as well as an understanding of their needs and the problems they may face," commented Barrus sales & technical manager Martin Wasley.

"This is one of the main reasons we brought Edward on board. He can relate to our dealers and consequently provide them with the assistance they really need."
