Price Turfcare, a newly established business founded by Ransomes Jacobsen’s former international sales director, Rupert Price, has been awarded the UK and Ireland distribution rights for Ventrac all-wheel-drive compact tractors.

Supported by a group of former colleagues with over 100 years of experience in the groundscare sector, Price Turfcare has bespoke warehousing and distribution facilities near Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk, with excellent road links via the A14 trunk road to all parts of the UK and to Europe’s largest container port at Felixstowe.

Dallas Steiner, president and CEO of Venture Products Inc, the Ohio-based manufacturers of Ventrac said: “I’ve known Rupert for a while now and he is hugely respected within our industry. He has 20 years of experience, mostly in senior sales management positions with a major player in the industry. His decision to go it alone is a brave one, but also a considered one, and he has recruited a group of former colleagues with similar experience, to provide sales, parts and service support. It goes without saying that we are extremely confident in Rupert and his team’s ability to really concentrate on expanding our UK sales or we would not have taken this important strategic decision to appoint his fledgling company.”

About Ventrac

The Steiner family has always been about the business of making life simpler through practical engineering, design ingenuity and good old-fashioned common sense. Those early values passed on by the founder, Marvin Steiner continues to be the driving force that pushes the company to design and manufacture the highest quality equipment available, surpassing the needs of our ever-changing world. In 1998 his sons introduced the brand name Ventrac and the Steiner brothers focused their energies on the new ‘next generation’ all-wheel-drive compact tractor.

Ventrac’s versatility offers over 30 different attachments and combined with their patented Mount System (which takes less than a minute to attach or detach attachments) provides a compact power pack with maximum performance and versatility for many different sectors within the groundscare industry.
