The unique BucketBarrow arrives In UK

Magic Distribution have taken their first delivery of BucketBarrow this week. Originally designed and developed for gardeners and the construction industry in Australia, BucketBarrow is a truly unique and tough wheelbarrow that until now has only been available down under.

 

URBAN88 Kit; Keeping different materials separated.

 

This patented wheelbarrow system has a bucket and scoop configuration that integrates with the barrow allowing material to be easily loaded and emptied in manageable amounts, or taken into areas where access is restricted for a barrow; whether that be into flower beds or onto scaffolding. 

 

“This is truly a unique product that we fell in love with as soon as we saw it. Not only is it a great idea that is useful both to casual gardeners all the way through to use on building sites, but it is also meticulously engineered for ease of use and durability. Even the entry level URBAN88 barrow would hold it’s own against most trade barrows. The PRO models have extra durable materials and reinforcements making them suitable for even the toughest jobs,” said John Hall, Managing Director, Magic Distribution.

 

After initially showing the product for the first time at the Garden Press Event in spring, to a lot of positive feedback, the first stock was delayed due to COVID. With the products supply chain now back to full capacity the first delivery has now arrived with follow up stock already planned due to the high level of interest already. 

 

BucketBarrow is instantly available to all retailers who work with Magic Distribution selling the other brands in their range; Sherpa Tools, Ambrogio & Robomow but there are also opportunities for new retailers looking to add something different to their range. 

 

 

“In these tough times we are confident that BucketBarrow will offer something different to dealers and gain them incremental business while offering their customers something really special. 

 

"As this product is so unique, we are keen to build relationships with new dealers who maybe don’t deal with us on our other brands, but for who a wheelbarrow like this could really suit their customers."

 

 

While BucketBarrow are premium wheelbarrows they’re not as expensive as you might think. With the entry level URBAN88 selling for £100 to customers as a standard barrow or £149 with the full bucket system.
