THE WILCO STORY - DESIGNED BY FARMERS, FOR FARMERS
As calf rearers themselves, Gary and Glennis Wilson saw a need for a quality product, practical and robust enough to stand up to daily rigours in all conditions.
Wilco was formed by Managing Director Gary Wilson and his wife Glennis in 2003 and is located on the edge of the Rangitaiki Plains in the Whakatane District. Work was initially centred around maintenance at the local pulp and paper mills where Gary had been involved in for 20 years, as well as general engineering work for the local farming community.
At this time, the range of Wilco farming products was designed and developed. Gary and Glennis realised a need, as calf rearers themselves, to manufacture a quality product, practical, efficient and robust enough to stand up to daily rigours in all conditions.
In 2006, Gary and Glennis purchased Surtees Trailers Ltd and set up an adjoining workshop to manufacture trailers for the neighbouring Surtees Boats. The range was soon expanded to include custom road trailers.
Farm-related products continue to be expanded under the Wilco brand name and the popularity and quality of the products speak for themselves.
"We combine our good ideas with yours because you know what works for you" is the philosophy behind our products.
Products that last a lifetime on the farm.
All Wilco Engineering feeders and trailers are designed for everyday use on the farm or for transporting, and are the ideal solution due to their strength and durability. Our highly robust frames are made in New Zealand and fully galvanised, to ensure the best quality and performance.
Our specialty hay/meal feeders, static large bale feeders and trailers are now spread all over New Zealand, from Ranfurly in the south, through to Kaitaia in the far north. We are well-known for the quality and longevity of our products and 100% stand by everything we manufacture.
