Gordons appointed Develon dealer for whole of Scotland

Territory expansion sees authorized dealer representing the brand across the whole of Scotland

DEVELON, formerly Doosan Construction Equipment, have appointed Castle Douglas-based James Gordon Ltd (Gordons) as the company’s authorized dealer for the whole of Scotland. 

From their base in Dumfries and Galloway, Gordons were already the authorized dealer for the Develon range in Scotland’s South West and Borders regions, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Inverclyde, Renfrewshire, the Lothian counties, Argyle and Bute, the Isle of Mull, Stirling, Falkirk, Lanarkshire, and Ayrshire, and for the county of Cumbria in northern England.

Now, with the new appointment, the territory that Gordons are responsible for has been expanded to include Aberdeenshire, Angus, Fife, Highlands, Inverness-shire, Moray, Orkney, Perth and Kinross, Shetland, the Outer Hebrides, and Skye.

Established in 1865 and with six strategically placed depots, Gordons are now solely responsible for sales and servicing of the Develon crawler, wheeled and mini/midi-excavator, wheel loader, articulated dumptruck, and attachment ranges in Scotland and Cumbria, providing a fast and efficient local service for machinery, attachments, and after-sales support.

Kevin Fraser, group sales director at Gordons, said: ‘We are delighted to be representing the Develon brand throughout Scotland. We have received a good response from existing customers as well as new prospects. There is a high existing population of Develon/Doosan machines in the areas we have added, which we have taken under our wing.’
