The home of Grillo in New Zealand, Australia, and the South Pacific. Italian outdoor power equipment including; ride on mowers, rotary hoes, trimmer mowers, power carriers, farm trucks and walk behind tractors.
AgriGarden Distributors began in January 2002 when director, Mike Candy, discovered this amazing company and brand Grillo then acquired the agency from the Italian company GRILLO for New Zealand. What started with a small dealer network in NZ grew into a specialised importing and distribution business involving dealer channels across Australia and the South Pacific. AgriGarden was able to take over distribution in Australia in 2006 and further expand the Grillo product range through dealers located in most states of Australia.

Our Philosophy
We don't just say we believe in the Grillo product. We really do believe in it - and not just in the product, but in the people that are designing and building a large range of specialised, quality machines in Italy. Grillo Italy is a company of people who are proud of their history. The company has been manufacturing its products for over 50 years and was started by the current managing director's Father. We think this is a great place to start. These machines aren't just turned out on a never ending production line. A lot of care is taken in the design, function, manufacturing, style and after sales support. The result is a set of machines that we in turn are proud to represent in New Zealand and Australia. They are specialised so you won't find them everywhere. That also means they'll do the job you need - every time as they've been optimised for our local conditions. It also means that our dealers have something unique to offer their customers. It's a win win situation. With spare parts stocked in fully managed warehouses located in Brisbane and Auckland we can can provide parts quickly and efficiently in any part of Australasia and the Pacific. Our ServicesOur aim is to fully develop the Dealer channels in New Zealand and Australia. Both these countries have a great outdoor power industry - one that we're glad to be a part of and an industry that has a big future. We believe that dealers are instrumental in providing a customer with the right machine, the best support and ongoing service. As a result we choose to support our dealers with unique products that can add value to their business and differentiate themselves from their competitors. We also aim for the best margins we can and a high level of support from us. As well as national advertising and marketing we'll talk to customers and put them in touch with their local dealer on the spot and we'll work with that dealer as much as they need us to, to ensure they get everything they need to see that customers purchase the right machine. |
