Another £14 Million Deal for JCB 3CXs

Adding to a string of high profile transactions, JCB have announced a £14 million deal for supplying equipment including jcb 3cxs to Kent plant firm H.E. Services. This is the third deal announced by JCB this year, following a similar sized transaction with Hewden's plant hire and Travis Perkins.

The deal is to supply a fleet of 350 machines for the Strood plant hire firm. It was announced during Chancellor George Osborne's visit to the JCB Transmission factory in Wrexham, where the transmission components for the jcb 3cx in the new deal will be built.

The machines will be supplied to H.E. Services through JCB dealer Greenshields JCB.

Alan Blake, Chief Executive for JCB said the deal is a welcome addition to the flurry of big money deals announced since the year began. "This order follows a number of major deals JCB has secured so far this year and we are delighted that a company of H. E. SERVICES' reputation has chosen JCB products when updating its fleet," said Blake.

"H.E. SERVICES are long-standing JCB customers so it's testament to both the quality of JCB's machines and our service back-up that we have retained this important business.

"This year has certainly got off to a flying start for JCB; our order books are in their healthiest position for four years and at this stage the outlook for the rest of 2011 is extremely promising."


H.E. Services current fleet stands at around 2000 pieces of plant equipment, including jcb 3cx for sale, which are distributed nationwide through a network of twelve dealerships. The company was founded in Strood, Kent in 1972.

Hugh Edeleanu, the company's Group Chairman said in a statement: "Our company's mission is to provide the best quality service and most extensive range of machines and attachments for our customers and this big investment in new JCB machines is critical to delivering that promise.

"We pride ourselves on having Britain's most up-to-date fleet of machines and we are committed to replacing that fleet every two or three years to ensure our customers get the most efficient, powerful and high-performing products on the market."
