MKM Agriculture announces closure of its Suffolk branch
31st July 2024
After serving the community for nearly 40 years, a machinery specialist, MKM Agriculture Limited, has announced the closure of one of its branches.
MKM Agriculture directors said that they made a decision to close the Bury St Edmunds branch, in Ixworth Thorpe, Suffolk.
The store’s last working day will be Friday, 30th August 2024.
A company’s spokesperson said: “The directors of MKM Agriculture Limited are always seeking how we can best serve our current and indeed future customers.
“It has become increasingly obvious that the best way to achieve a more productive and service driven business is to streamline the process and to focus on core strengths.
“MKM Agriculture has been serving the community for nearly 40 years, and that focus has been achieved by centring our service for the agriculture and associated business.”
Bedford branch to take over
The garden and compact machinery specialist confirmed that normal service of sales will continue, and all orders will be delivered as planned.
All business after 30th August will be handled by the Bedford branch.
All service work currently booked in will be completed and returned.
The company added that the Suffolk team will no longer take on any new service work unless they have the availability to complete it before the closure date.
MKM Agriculture directors added: “We would like to take this opportunity to publicly thank our Ixworth Thorpe staff members for their service.
“For further information please contact our Bedford branch on 01234 768889 – or e-mail info@mkmagri.com.”
MKM Agriculture was founded in 1987 and has evolved from three friends working from a converted pig shed, repairing and servicing the local farm machinery to a multi-franchise business, including Suzuki, Yamaha, Kawasaki and Logic.
