Even better service at new location EXETER - Gabriel (Gabby) Mol, owner of Sherwood (Exeter) Ltd., is cautiously optimistic about the 1989 business year. Sales for the past three months - December, Jan- uary and February - are up from the same period a year ago, and The re- cent farm show in Toronto has sparked interest in what is available at the farm equipment dealership. The company is participating in the farm show being held in Lon- don this week froth Wednesday to Saturday. Mol was in Europe in January, and reports that the Massey Fergu- son tractors are one of the most popular Makes on the other side of the Atlantic. He credits this. to the tractors' advanced technology. "The big Massey Ferguson trac- tors are tops in the market as far as engineering and advances go", Mol said. Mol singled out a number of components for special praise. The Datatronics on -board computer gives the operator an instant digital read-out of acres -worked, fuel used, distance travelled, and other calcula- tions that are especially helpful to custom operators and farmers run- ning large acreages. Mol terms the Perkins engine the most reliable in the farm -industrial market, -and notes that Massey Fer- guson was the first tractor to have an electronic three-point hitch. This year Sherwoods is introduc- ing the Kioti tractor to this area. At present the dealership is carry- ing the 16 hp and the 20 hp models of the Korean -made small, compact deisels that are equivalent to the Japanese Kubotas. Within a year Mol expects to have available in Canada the full line of Kiotis rang- ing from the 12 hp to the 50 hp machines. Sherwood moved last summer from Exeter to a much larger site at 150 Thames Road East, and now offers customers better service fa- cilities, easy accessibility without having to go through town, a "better mix of parts" and ample parking. Servicing is an integral part of the business. "We can serviceany unit inside our new service department, with room to spare", Mol said. Sherwood also carries a wide range of farm implements, compet- itively -priced venerators powered at up to 8,000 kv, and a full line of lawn and garden equipment. The Sherwood staff consists of mechanics Dave Holmes and Brent Blacklcr, parts manager Mark Hoo- ver, and Betty Irving, who is cur- rently on maternity leave. , Gabby Mol is proud of the quality' of the machines sold and ser- viced at his Sherwood(Exeter) dealership.
