On Friday 25th June, SANY officially opened it’s first ever depot in the UK which will be the home of SANY Scotland; the excavator manufacturer’s direct sales and support route for the Scottish market.

The premises, located in Coatbridge, near Glasgow, was officially opened by the SANY UK & Ireland team during a Live event on the company’s Facebook page.

The 11,000sqft building, with large storage yard and parts warehouse, will primarily be used to stock and service excavators for direct sales customers in Scotland. The building will also serve as the head quarters for SANY UK & Ireland, supporting the dealer network for the rest of the UK & Ireland with dedicated parts, technical support and product development specialists.

‘UK & Ireland is a key strategic market for SANY and that’s why we have established a UK company, built a team and developed a dealer network to ensure we are fully equipped to provide industry leading support for our excavators’ commented Simon Zhu, Managing Director, SANY UK & Ireland. ‘The opening of our first depot is another major milestone and we will continue to invest as SANY is here for the long term’ continued Simon.

 ‘There’s a growing population of SANY excavators in Scotland and this facility will allow us to provide customers with even greater levels of support’ commented Lyle Sibbald, General Manager, SANY Scotland. ‘We’ve been working hard over the past few months preparing the depot and stocking the warehouse with thousands of parts to ensure we’re ready for launching SANY Scotland’.
