Vermeer EMEA Headquarters trip

[Guest]

Hi Guys,

 

I’m Will Wood and I’m the new representative for Vermeer in North England and Scotland. As an arborist I have always had a keen interest in machinery so when Vermeer UK sent me off on my recent trip to the Vermeer EMEA headquarters in the Netherlands I was in my element! I have included some Photos of the trip as I though you guys might be interested in taking a look at some of the photos I took.

Yes it is a Dutch company Originally. The main Factory is in America now though, last year they produced there 120,000 wood chipper so they need a lotta space
