Business Breakfast: Ripon Farm Services opens new branch in Malton
In this morning's business briefing, Ripon Farm Services has announced it has opened a new depot in Malton, while two Harrogate businesses prepare for Leeds Digital Festival events.
Ripon Farm Services' new Malton branch.
Business Breakfast is sponsored by Harrogate law firm Truth Legal.
Ripon Farm Services has opened a new branch near Malton.
The company, which supplies agricultural machinery, has moved into a depot at the 30-acre Eden Business Park.
It becomes the firm’s twelfth branch it has opened in the UK.
RFS has taken possession of a high-quality 22,000 sq ft building at the multi-million pound business park, which is located immediately off the A64 by the Pickering Road (A169) junction by Eden Camp.
Richard Simpson, commercial director of RFS, said:
“The opening of our new Malton depot is a major milestone for Ripon Farm Services and signals our intention to ramp up the investment in our long-term future.
“This new building reflects the importance we place on serving the North and East Yorkshire farming, equestrian and ground care communities. We will be providing the full range of services that you would expect from a John Deere main dealer and will also be moving our Ifor Williams trailer dealership into our new depot.
“In addition, we will have a huge range of ground care equipment for both Groundscare professionals and homeowners alike. We can’t wait to get going.”
RFS has now started trading from the Malton depot and are organising an open day for all their customers on Thursday, October 27, between 12pm and 8pm.

Harrogate businesses set for Digital Festival dates
Harrogate law firm Berwins will host four events as part of Leeds Digital Festival later this month.
Its experts in digital and business law will speak about Giving Data Proper Respect on September 19, realising the Value of Your Intellectual Property on September 22, and Recognising and Recovering Revenue on September 26.
All three talks take place at Platform on New Station Street in Leeds.
Harrogate's Co-Lab is also hosting an event at its base in Harrogate Convention Centre on September 28. It will focus on ways of raising funds for a tech start-up.
The final Berwins event is completely different: the law firm's runners will lead a 6km route around the city centre, in partnership with Harrogate-based Up & Running, on September 30.
Tickets for all five events, plus the rest of the 12-day programme, are available from the Leeds Digital Festival website.
