From Our Managing Director Andrew Shields

“I’m delighted to see the launch of this innovative new JCB SiteMaster Backhoe from JCB into the marketplace this year. The iconic JCB Backhoe Loader has always balanced the needs of owner-Operators who demand performance, reliability and premium specification, alongside the growing importance of keeping operating costs under control.

This new addition to the JCB product lineup creates an exciting opportunity for Customers to access the versatility and capability of a genuine JCB Backhoe at a more accessible price point, opening doors for businesses and Operators who may previously have viewed this level of equipment as out of reach.

Not only does this machine deliver the versatility of a high-performing dig end combined with legendary JCB loader functionality, but it also offers a genuine multi-purpose solution for today’s job sites. The JCB range represents extensive choice. Customers are able to choose between requiring a small JCB Site Dumper, a JCB Telescopic Handler, and a mid-sized JCB Excavator, or choose the JCB Backhoe “Swiss Army Knife” which offers an alternative: one highly capable solution in place of multiple machines.

Over the years, we’ve seen generations of Entrepreneurs and Owner-Operators build businesses around the iconic JCB Backhoe Loader, the concept of “being your own boss” was often made possible through owning a versatile machine like this. In recent years, rising costs have made that more difficult to achieve, but this new JCB machine gives us the opportunity to continue to support aspiring business owners and bring more people into an industry we know and love.

I look forward to speaking with Customers about the opportunities this machine presents within the marketplace, while also exploring the full range of solutions Holt JCB has to offer.”
