Familiar ROPA service through long-standing partners
The well-known, established, long-standing partners Rainer Meyer Landmaschinen GmbH from Andervenne, covering southern Emsland and Haselünne, and Rehnen Landtechnik GmbH from Wippingen, covering the whole of northern Emsland, will continue to provide and guarantee the familiar ROPA sales and service for ROPA Potato technology and Bijlsma Hercules potato technology without restriction.
ROPA is thus closing the last remaining gaps for its customers in western Lower Saxony, enabling comprehensive sales, service and spare parts supply to be offered for potato harvesters and planting technology, as well as for Bijlsma-Hercules conveying, sorting and storage technology.
We look forward to working together with LVD Krone GmbH and wish the entire team every success as they begin their role as the new service and sales partner for ROPA Potato technology.
