CONSTRUCTION equipment dealers HES Enterprises, of Irlam, Manchester, have received the 2024 Best Market Coverage UK & Eire award from Hyundai Construction Equipment Europe (HCEE).

The business, which offers the full range of Hyundai machinery across a wide range of industry sectors, celebrated 25 years with the manufacturer in 2024 and is working toward continued success in the future.

‘We joined forces with Hyundai in 1999 and we’ve never looked back,’ said HES managing director Andrew Shaw. ‘2025 has started really strongly and we are looking forward to another successful year.’

According to Hyundai, HES are well established across the North West, offering exceptional levels of back-up and service to customers throughout the construction equipment market. Many of those businesses have strong relationships with the dealer, that have been built-up over multiple years of working in partnership.

Hyundai Construction Equipment will expand their machinery line-up this year, with new, models including skid-steer loaders, compact tracked loaders, dedicated materials handling machinery, and the addition of their first full electric mini-excavator at next week’s Bauma exhibition in Munich. There will also be major upgrades to existing model lines, following the successful launch of a completely new line of compact excavators last year.

Anthony Hogben, HCEE’s new regional sales manager for the UK and Eire, presented HES with the award. He said: ‘This is going to be a massive year for Hyundai, with a broadening of the line-up that will take the company into new market sectors, many in answer to customer request. With high-quality dealers like HES, who have built such strong relationships with customers over many years, we are anticipating further growth across the market during 2025.’

HCEE continue to recognize the achievements of their sales and aftercare network, through their annual Dealer Awards. Celebrating sales and service success across Europe, the awards recognize the dedication, expertise, and experience within the distribution network.
