Case appoints dealers and adds to range

Case has filled the holes in its dealership network and is set to introduce a range of three ‘E’ series wheel loaders, two of which – the 821E and the 921E – will be at Bauma, while the new 721E was unveiled at SAIE.

Gammies already represents Case in north-east Scotland and will add the Border counties to its territory. Loading shovel specialists Warwick Ward has been appointed to cover parts of Yorkshire, Lancashire and Derbyshire. Leavesley International takes on responsibility for the Midlands.

The manufacturer has not released specifications for the 921E or the 821E – a replacement for the ageing 821C, which was not updated when the other machines were changed to ‘D’ series.

A company spokesman said: “The 821 is possibly the most exciting new machine Case will launch next year.”

• Bailey’s of Norfolk has already ordered what will be the UK’s first Case 821E loading shovel.
