A warm welcome to you from your well-known Skipton rural supplies team of Charlie (“Grover”) Groves, our agronomist Adam Slater, and our helpful warehouse and merchandise managers Caine McMahon and Brad Moyle.
On Thursday 18 June, after 5 years together, Greg Hewitt and Peter Hewitt, directors of Hewitt & Whitty, signed the agreement they put in place in 2015 with Charlie Groves, for Charlie to acquire the Skipton business of Hewitt & Whitty that, with sincere thanks to you for your support, Charlie and his team have built up since then.
From Wednesday 1 July 2020 under our new name Grovers Rural Supplies, the same friendly and service-oriented team are in the same location in Skipton’s Montgomery Street at the western end of town. We look forward to seeing you in the shop or out on your property.
Continuity of service to you as customer is our main purpose. We understand your needs and will maintain the level of service and relationships we have had over the years. One change we have made is to arrange supplies through long established Australian-owned Elders Ltd, through their supplier group Australian Independent Rural Retailers (AIRR). AIIR supply old favourites and many other special lines. We will help you to become familiar with new opportunities through them.
Please browse this website for some background on Grovers Rural Supplies, our team, our experience and what we can do to help you in your business.
