Rygor Plant appointed as Hyundai Construction dealer

Hyundai Construction Equipment Europe has appointed Rygor Plant as its dealer for Greater London, the West Midlands, the Southwest including Bristol and Wales. Rygor Plant will be offering plant dedication from its facility in Swindon, with mobile plant technicians working from whole network of Rygor sites throughout the region, offering customers local service and after-care.

Rygor Plant is a division of Rygor Group, which incorporates Rygor Auto, one of the UK’s largest commercial vehicle dealers for Mercedes-Benz Trucks, SAIC Maxus light commercials and Higer Buses. The Group also includes Rygor Service Solutions, an independent fleet workshop division, specialising in the management of commercial vehicle fleets, either within customers’ own premises or through a range of mobile service solutions. Fleets covered by the company include Tesco, Ocado and catering supplier Brakes.

Rygor Plant will supply the complete, rapidly expanding range of Hyundai Construction Equipment machinery. This will include a host of new models that were launched at the Bauma construction equipment fair in Munich in April. The business can deliver genuine parts, service and warranty cover for new and existing Hyundai customers and it will hold stock of new and used machines within the hub. Asset finance, service packs and product demonstrations are also available.

Commercial Director Rish Channa said: “As a Group, we already cover a vast geographical area throughout the UK, via our 17 locations, so we really know what it takes to partner with an OEM of Hyundai’s stature and how to develop an impactful, long-term relationship. We are all about brand dedication, living and breathing the product, the brand and the culture, not just in sales, but across the entire company, including our award-winning aftersales team. 

“Rygor Plant will be one of the largest Hyundai Construction dealers in Europe, and this is a very proud moment for our team. We are delighted to be partnering with Hyundai to offer its complete construction range across our entire territory and beyond. Rygor Plant has a strong foundation on which to offer our customers end-to-end solutions, focusing solely on providing capital equipment directly to the end user.

“This focus on sales, as opposed to rental, is one of the reasons for our success to date, alongside our commitment to offering exceptional aftersales for plant machinery. As the first Group to have such an offering, and we are looking forward to the future with Hyundai.”

Anthony Hogben, Hyundai Construction Equipment’s Regional Sales Manager for the UK and Eire, added: “We are delighted to have Rygor Plant as part of our dealer network in the UK. The company has an excellent reputation for service and back-up and many of its existing customers work within construction-related applications.

“This is a particularly exciting time to be joining Hyundai, as we build on our traditional model lines, like crawler and wheeled excavators, wheel loaders and articulated dump trucks, with the addition of materials handling machines, dozers, skid steers and compact tracked loaders.

“Hyundai is pushing ahead with a range of innovative technologies too, including our first full electric mini excavator. Visitors to the recent Bauma exhibition will also have seen our hydrogen fuel cell-powered wheeled excavator and our hydrogen refueller, both of which demonstrate that we are ready for the transition to a zero-carbon future on construction sites.”
