Vermeer has forged an alliance with G.T. Bunning & Sons Ltd, a UK-based leader in manure spreader manufacturing. This partnership integrates Bunning spreaders into the comprehensive Vermeer lineup serving North American hay, forage and livestock producers.
“This alliance with Bunning strengthens our ability to address the evolving needs of agricultural producers,” said Shane Rourke, managing director of Vermeer Forage Solutions. “It’s a natural extension of our commitment to keeping farmers and ranchers productive and efficient. By combining Vermeer forage expertise and dealer network with Bunning’s 40-year legacy in premium spreader technology, we’re positioned to offer producers equipment that truly meets their needs.”
The current Vermeer agricultural equipment range includes self-propelled balers, round balers, mowers, tedders, rakes, bale wrappers, bale processors, vertical mixers and feed wagons. The addition of Bunning spreaders extends the Vermeer equipment lineup, providing more solutions for farm operations of all sizes.
Bunning, with a century-long history, brings valuable experience to the partnership. Both companies share a vision for meeting farmer and rancher needs through ongoing innovation and have parallel histories of quality, innovation and customer-focused solutions.
“This partnership with Vermeer marks a significant milestone for Bunning in the United States and Canada,” said Chris Druce, sales director for Bunning. “This collaboration underscores both companies’ commitment to supporting agricultural operations of all sizes with innovative solutions that can help improve productivity and streamline operations.”
The initial product line will feature spreaders from 300 ft3 to 1,400 ft3 (8.5 m3 to 40 m3), catering to operations of various sizes, from small family farms to large commercial operations.
“Farmers can expect the same level of support and expertise for these spreaders that they’ve come to rely on with all Vermeer products,” Rourke added. “It’s about delivering equipment that performs, backed by reliable service. When investing in a Vermeer manure spreader, our customers can be confident they’re getting a top-quality product that combines proven technology with full support from the Vermeer dealer network.”
This partnership aligns with the Vermeer history of pioneering solutions that address the challenges farmers and ranchers face. From introducing the revolutionary large round baler to now expanding into premium manure spreaders, Vermeer continues to help farmers and ranchers work more efficiently.
