CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS
Our client approached Commander Ag-Quip seeking new sheep yards due to the degradation and increasing safety concerns of their existing ones. The old yards required constant repairs and were becoming inefficient, requiring significant time investment before each use. In order to address these issues and improve their operations, the client recognized the urgent need for a new set of yards and turned to Commander Ag-Quip, seeking their expertise in providing safe, efficient, and durable sheep yards for their farming needs. The client made the trip to see multiple completed Commander Ag-Quip Permanent Sheep Yards, and after seeing the quality and standard of installation, decided to choose Commander Ag-Quip to supply & install his new set of large sheep yards.
The Yard Cover: Commander Ag-Quip worked in collaboration with ABC Shed who supplied the yard cover. Working closely throughout the entire design process ensured that the installation was seamless and that the cover didn’t clash with the yard design and hinder stock flow at all.
