OCTO Equipment the XCMG dealers for the South of England are hosting an exciting Dig Day event across two days, 17th & 18th of July 11am – 4pm.

Get “Hands On” at the OCTO XCMG Open Dig Day

Visitors to this free to attend event, will be able to get “hands-on” with a full range of XCMG construction equipment which will include hydraulic excavators, skid steer loaders, and compaction equipment.

There is no need to book, just turn up on the day, and enjoy the driving experience, and in addition, there will be demos of the machines, trials, and all backed up by expert on-site advice from the OCTO Equipment sales team.

The event takes place at the premises of Kieron Beattie Landscapes – KBL Ltd, Monxton Nurseries, Green Lane, Hampshire, SP11 8AN.

Since entering the UK market, XCMG are making a big impact with their equipment, which feature well proven and top-quality blue-chip components under the bodywork.

XCMG continue to have a high ranking in the respected Yellow Table of the world's largest construction equipment manufacturers by sales revenue, published by KHL, sitting at 4th place behind John Deere, Komatsu and Caterpillar.

I will be there on the opening day and I look forward to seeing you there.
