Aberdeen Pressure Washer Centre – a division of Turriff AgriParts (TAP) Ltd – took part in an international tender process to win the one-year deal which has an option to roll out for a further two years.

TAP Ltd – which employs 15 people and stocks more than 12,000 product lines – incorporates Aberdeen Pressure Washer Centre and operates from Duff Street in Turriff and Inverurie’s Thainstone Centre. Overseas markets include Europe, Nigeria, Algeria, Tunisia, Bangladesh, North and Central Africa and the USA.

The company is headed by former farmer and agricultural contractor, George Mearns and it celebrated its 30th anniversary last year.

The company has been supplying a client in Azerbaijan with Kärcher cleaning equipment and spare parts for the past year and won the contract by demonstrating their ability in product knowledge and meeting delivery deadlines.

Kärcher is a privately own company and is the world’s largest cleaning equipment company with annual sales of €1.4m billion and Aberdeen Pressure Washer Centre is the manufacturer’s only premier dealer in the North of Scotland.

“We are extremely pleased to be awarded this significant contract which maintains our relationship with a valued client in Azerbaijan and Georgia and demonstrates our continued commitment to Kärcher,” said sales and marketing director, Eileen Brown.
