A small range of services offered by HBS Ring Ltd

 

HBS Ring Ltd originated from the amalgamation of three companies each trading in their own right. These consisted of Highland Farmers, which began in 1994, Highland Agricultural Labour Services setup in 1996 and Highland Machinery Ring, which was the first to be setup in 1988. The customer/member base was similar across all three companies, it was therefore believed it would be more beneficial to all members if the full range of services were offered through one business. The three companies amalgamated in April 2001 and HBS Ring Ltd was formed. A decision was taken in 2006 to resurrect HALS to meet the rules and regulations set out by SAOS, whereby a machinery ring acts as an agent only. This means that commodities, training courses and non Member to Member labour are  invoiced through HALS Ltd

H.B.S. Ring can supply machinery for all applicationsThe name "Machinery Ring" is in itself somewhat restrictive and although the core business will always be centred around the improved utilisation of farm machinery, there is no end to the possibilities open to the newly formed and innovative organisation. Armed with a committed membership base and a forward thinking board of directors the company will continue to grow, hopefully towards better times. As the agricultural industry contracts so does the ability of each individual business to generate increased business, without seeking new and diverse avenues of income. HBS Ring Ltd is no different in this respect and it too must seek alternative income streams not only for its own well being but also for its individual members.

We have a full range of services available through HBS Ring Ltd which demonstrates the diversity already displayed by our growing membership. Almost every aspect of rural business is on offer from organising and sowing the supplies of seed to the combining at harvest time, with all the technical and product related information in between. The labour, which we can provide at a time when your business workload reaches its peak, can also be provided including any specific training requirements you or your staff request. It is our aim to provide all your business needs efficiently and cost effectively.

H.B.S. Ring Ltd can supply a wide range of wearing parts. Phone the office with your requirements.The idea of a Machinery Ring was first brought over to Scotland in the late Seventies, but did not gain favour until 1987 when Scotland's first ring was set up in the Borders. Like all good ideas, the Ring concept is simple. Work required out for a demander is organised by the Ring, which contacts the most appropriate and nearest supplier and charges a modest 2% commission to cover it's overheads. The prices charged are between demander and supplier and are open to negotiation. However most Rings produce an annual price guide for members' information.

The organisation promotes co-operation and by combining all the resources at our disposal will see us fitter and stronger to survive the tougher times we face. The first step to improving your financial future is only a phone call away, so make the commitment, join HBS Ring Ltd and reap the rewards.
