New sales manager for Zetor appointed

McHale Plant Sales has appointed Will Doyle to the position of national sales manager for Zetor tractors.

A graduate of Kildalton Agricultural College and Waterford Institute of Technology, Will hails from Co Wexford where his early career included senior level appointments within Slaney Farms Produce Limited.

Since 2010, his international experience brought him to Western Australia where he held senior sales management and dealer management positions with AGCO and New Holland.

At McHale Plant Sales, he will have primary responsibility for the activities of its Zetor Ireland affiliate, north and south.

This will include all aspects of Zetor sales and marketing with a major focus on dealer development.

Commenting, McHale Plant Sales managing director Michael McHale said: “Will’s return to Ireland and his appointment as national Zetor Ireland sales manager could not have come at a better time for Zetor and our dealer network.

“With the broadening of the Zetor range to include the new flagship Forterra and new entry-level Major models, coupled with a more competitive price position, Zetor is aiming to grow its market share.”
