Volvo Construction Equipment has appointed Griffith A'I Gwmni Cyf, of Rhosfawr, near Pwllheli, as a compact equipment dealer for north Wales.
Having evaluated the top players in the country, husband and wife team Arwel and Elaine Griffith, who run the dealership, approached Volvo at this year's SED.
"For a while now, we've been looking for a new challenge to expand our business," said Arwel. "There's a good deal of potential for mini excavators in north Wales and so we looked at the top players in the market place and narrowed our choice to three manufacturers."
