Hereford Voice Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 COUNTRYWIDE, the Worcestershire-based firm supplying products to the rural community, has gone into administration. The firm has stores in Herefordshire including Hereford, Bromyard and Ledbury. The company is one of the UK's leading suppliers of agricultural goods including a range of farming, equestrian, harvesting and agricultural supplies, and employs more than 700 people and has 48 stores. Administrators have been appointed from KPMG, which say no "initial redundancies" have been made. On the company's website it says: Quote "David Pike, Mark Orton and Will Wright have been appointed as Joint Administrators of Countrywide Farmers Plc (in Administration) on 7 March 2018". "It is the Joint Administrators’ intention to seek a purchaser for the business in whole or part and we have appointed Hilco Capital to assist in running the stores whilst we explore and develop available options."
