We are proud to represent the turf industry on the global stage , and this award highlights our commitment to continually delivering exceptional service and driving innovation in the turf care industry .”
Campey ’ s place as the winner was secured due to its history , progress , and innovation in the global turf market . Campey Turf Care Systems , established in 1986 by Richard Campey , has provided sports turf professionals with industry-defining machinery for 38 years .
Richard Campey detected an untapped market need . He realised that a specialist suppli-er of highquality , purpose-built equipment could enable turf managers to meet the in-creased demands placed on modern sports turf surfaces .
From FIFA World Cups to Wimbledon , and Salford City FC to Manchester United , there is rarely a tournament or event played on turf that hasn ’ t been prepared using a Campey machine .
What initially started out as a business offering sports turf maintenance work within the North West of the United Kingdom has now grown to be one of the UK ’ s leading inde-pendent distributors . Machinery is available from over 70 dealers throughout Europe , Asia , Africa and the USA .

It has conducted nu-merous European roadshows and demo days worldwide , offering countryspecific train-ing to esteemed professionals and volunteers , thereby consistently elevating the stand-ard of play .
Campey ’ s innovative machinery , combined with education and customer service , is what has led to the exponential and continued growth of a family business from Macclesfield , which is now the number one supplier and manufacturer of specialised sports turf equip-ment in the world . ” www . campeyturfcare . com
