The FSI range of stump grinders has become the latest in an established list of professional groundcare and arboricultural brands available to customers in Jersey via the team at Eastern Garden Machinery.
Andrew Le Maistre and his brother Simon took over the ownership of Jersey’s most established equipment suppliers in 2017 and, with the continued expansion of their product line up, are taking the company from strength to strength!
New management, new location, new opportunities
Eastern Garden Machinery had built a reputation on providing strong, reliable brands including Stihl, Walker, Iseki and more – catering to the requirements of landscapers, gardeners, sports facilities, arborists and those working in the agricultural sector. Andrew himself was a longstanding customer of the company, when the opportunity arose to take over the management in early 2017.
Together with adding new franchises, including the full FSI range of pedestrian, PTO and hydraulic-powered stump grinders, Andrew and Simon have relocated to a more spacious, purpose-built showroom on the islands main vein, neighbouring the world-famous Jersey Zoo.
Sales and service, backed up by first-hand FSI experience
“FSI has been a fantastic addition to our offering” explains Andrew. “I found I was seeing a lot of comments on social media and on chat forums about the outstanding performance and robust build quality of the FSI brand. On seeing the products for ourselves, it reaffirmed everything we had read.”
“We have a fantastic customer base of tree surgeons on Jersey, and also deal with a lot of landscapers who are unlikely to be grinding stumps everyday but need a quality solution, at an affordable price, for when they do. The models available within the FSI range provide options for operators at all levels and complements our existing business perfectly.”
Andrew’s confidence in the range is not limited to selling FSI Stump Grinders, he’s actually purchased one for himself – for use in his own landscaping business. “My personal experience means I can give others a first-hand perspective on the machines. This has already generated interest when talking to clients and publicising these projects on social media.”
