About Us
A 3rd Generation Family Run Business
Tom Perry, a farmer’s son, founded the company back in 1947, by offering a mobile repair and manufacturing service to local farmers in Oakley, near Basingstoke in Hampshire.
That grew and in 1972 Nigel, Tom’s son joined the business and in 1974 they moved into a new purpose built facility in Oakley.
Nigel and his wife Pat made the huge decision to move the company down to Devon in late 1989 to enable its continued growth. Quickly after that their son, David, joined fresh from his 1st class Honours degree in Agricultural Engineering.
In 2007 David took over as MD, and continued the company expansion his dad had started. Since then the company product range and the number of countries they export to has grown significantly.
Claire, David’s sister, joined full time in 2020 to run the operational side of the company bringing her international corporate experience with her.
David & Claire have huge plans for the company so watch this space.
