JOHN'S TORO SUCCESS A "SHAW" THING

Toro Commercial products dealer John Shaw Machinery has carried of the top prize in the turf maintenance equipment manufacturer's latest annual dealer awards. The Lewes, Sussex based company was voted "Best Overall Dealer" for 1998. The accolade marks a busy and successful time for the expanding dealership, which last year added Surrey, South London and East Berkshire to its existing territory of Sussex and Kent. In hand with these moves, the firm also opened a new service depot in Gomshall, Surrey.

Having become Toro's top dealer, the firm won't rest on its laurels either. Indeed, in another new development just announced, the dealership is offering a free delivery service for parts. It means Toro customers throughout the south-east are guaranteed free deliveries on a specified day of the week.
