Cows on skis - no: Cows and skis.
The entrepreneur Yordan Erinin lives in Bansko in the southwest of Bulgaria. His company focuses on construction industry and agriculture.
Till 2010, he was employed until he decided to revive the heritage of his parents and take over the farm. The company started off with 40 animals and with the purchase of the old farm buildings in the Pirin mountain region. This region has a long tradition in animal husbandry and offers excellent development opportunities. Today 180 animals are kept on the farm – specially for milk and meat production. The animals come from the Simmental and Limousin breeds, which have very good genetics and excellent productivity.
T5522 as a real multi-tool.
In order to simplify the farm work, the entrepreneur purchased a telehandler T5522 at the end of 2018. “I decided to go with T5522 because of its compactness and the excellent combination of lifting height and lifting force. We use the machine for all animal-related tasks – in particular in the stable, where we appreciate the compact machine and its manoeuvrability. With a width of 1.80 m and a height of 1.95 m, it is also ideal for cleaning the animal areas or for distributing the feed in the feeding alleys. In addition, we use the T5522 to clean the outdoor area of the farm. The option to equip the machine with different attachments makes the telehandler a real multi-tool and an indispensable helper in our livestock breeding”, explains Yordan Erinin.
Support in “World Ski Cup” in Bansko.
In addition to the T5522, Yordan Erinin has one more tele wheel loader 3080T, which was delivered by the Bulgarian importer Agritop in time before the start of the "World Ski Cup" in Bansko in February 2019. His construction company “Avon-5” participated in the organisation of the “World Ski Cups” in Bansko. Thus, the new 3080T also turned out to be a welcome helper in the event preparations. With over 1,800 m above sea level, this is one of the largest winter sports events in Bulgaria and must meet the strict requirements of the “International Ski Federation” (FIS).
Expansion of Weidemann fleet.
During the winter event, the 3080T took over the construction of visitor stands, the transport of visitor railings and various loading and unloading tasks. The 4-in-1 bucket also made this work considerably easier. “I am very much satisfied with the Weidemann brand. I am an absolute fan! The support and service from Agritop are great as well”, happily narrates Yordan Erinin. He has big plans for the future. He would like to expand his company further, continue to grow the herd in his livestock breeding, build a new stable and expand the machinery fleet for the other business branch. “Agritop has already shown us which machine suits our new requirements. I think that the next Weidemann will be the bigger telehandler T6027, which will help us a lot with the work.”
