Farmstar joins Merlo dealer network

Farmstar are extremely proud to announce that we have signed an agreement to sell the prestigious Italian telehandler manufacturer Merlo, covering all three depots in Marr, Brigg and Market Weighton. Merlo is a brand renowned for innovation, performance, and engineering excellence and we are absolutely delighted to be bringing their machines and values to our customers.

Managing Director, Sam Davies comments;

“We are extremely proud and excited to be representing such an outstanding brand. Merlo’s reputation for innovation, build quality, and forward-thinking engineering aligns perfectly with our values at Farmstar. Joining the Merlo dealer network is a fantastic opportunity for us, and we are genuinely excited to bring this innovative product range to market and support our customers with industry-leading solutions.”

After more than 20 years representing Manitou, the end of 2025 marked the close of this important chapter for Farmstar Ltd. Whilst we will continue to service Manitou machines and sell parts, we are incredibly excited about today’s announcement.

The enthusiasm for Merlo, across the whole Farmstar team has been fantastic and we are all looking forward to supporting both new and existing customers with this impressive product range. We would like to invite everyone to join us at our Marr Open Day on Thursday 22 January, to learn more about the Merlo brand, see what we can offer and meet the team. It will be a great opportunity to view the machines, ask questions, and celebrate this exciting new partnership with us.

Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to welcoming you on 22nd January.
