Moore Farm Services takes on McCormick
tractor dealership at South Yorkshire base
As part of expansion plans to further develop a busy agricultural machinery dealership in South
Yorkshire, Moore Farm Services has switched its tractor franchise back to McCormick.
THE change-over coincides with a move to
much larger premises providing more
space for new and used machinery storage,
four times as much workshop space and
a bigger parts store and shop for David
and Liz Moore’s business at Harworth near
Doncaster.
“It’s a very busy but exciting time for us,”
says Liz Moore. “Our business has grown
significantly since taking on Amazone in
2012 and then Krone in 2016, and the move
to premises five times larger than our previ-
ous ones should future-proof our needs for
the next 10 years or so.”
David and Liz Moore say the opportunity
to have McCormick back as their tractor
franchise could not have come at a better

confident about the change,” comments
David Moore.
The couple first set up shop as Moore
Farm Services in 2010, drawing on their
practical hands-on farming background
to set high standards for customer service
and building on David’s experience working
as a test and development engineer
when McCormick tractors were built in
Doncaster.
“McCormick products were the bedrock
of the business at first but later we were
tempted to switch to a different make that
we thought would meet particular cus-
tomer requirements,” says David Moore.
Liz Moore believes the business is also now
better placed to uphold the high standards
of customer service they strive for thanks
to McCormick manufacturer Argo Tractors
holding a substantial stock of parts at its UK
branch to complement dealer stocks.
