As of December 1st, 2021, Farol has purchased the assets of CaddyCars. Farol has seen significant growth in becoming Europe’s largest John Deere specialist Golf and Turf machinery dealership. Supplying hundreds of golf clubs across the UK, Farol was continually looking to drive the business forward. It was evident that there were gaps in the buggy and utility vehicle range. Club Car was the ideal fit for the portfolio.
CaddyCars has been in operation since 1991. Supplying golf courses with golf buggies and utility vehicles, though later diversifying the business into supplying councils, manufacturing, distribution, hospitality, and the homeowner market.
As Club Car becomes a leading franchise in Farols Golf and Turf department, we welcomed Philip Rosier of CaddyCars to the team. Philip now manages the Club Car business for Farol. Having Phil on the team has created a seamless transition for all CaddyCars existing customers to Farol. This addition has thus created opportunities of future growth for the Golf and Turf business.
Taking on this venture has introduced benefits that has allowed us to strengthen our position with the Club Car brand; being able to purchase and hold a larger number of machines and parts stock, whilst still maintaining the same high level of service that existing customers are used to.
Andy Bourke, Club Car’s Regional Manager, said: “Farol is a dynamic, innovative company that’s well placed to serve customers with our range of market-leading utility and transport vehicles whilst delivering the highest level of aftersales service and support.”
