B&W Feeds

About Us

B & W Feeds (Mobile) Ltd is a privately owned limited company, operating from premises at Tarrant Gunville, a village on the North Dorset – South Wiltshire border.

The Company joined the Eastbury Estate group of companies in 1995. It had previously been the animal feeds division of the local agricultural merchanting company, Blandford & Webb.

Our specific interest was the mobile on-farm feeds processing service, provided by truck mounted mills. On purchase it soon became very apparent that the old and unreliable American milling equipment, common to all this type of business, was not able to support or provide the service required.

Investigation of alternative machines led to the importation of the first new German Buschhoff milling machine in the UK, in 1997. So successful was this that the company acquired the sole UK & Ireland distributorship for the Buschhoff Company of Germany. New machines have continued to be added to the fleet until all old units were replaced.

To establish the company and the on-farm service provided as equal to any manufactured feed, the decision was made to become the first ISO registered mobile feeds service company in the UK in 1998. This was enhanced and replaced in 2004 by UFAS (UK Feed Assurance Scheme), the latest industry standard for safe animal feed production. This has been further complimented by accreditation with the NAAC (the National Association of Agricultural Contractors) in 2006, followed in the same year by accreditation with The Soil Association to ensure we are able to service the needs of our organic customers.

This sector of the agricultural industry is experiencing rapid growth fuelled by the
demand for safe fully traceable animal feeds, and the low prices and margins in
both cereals and livestock enterprises. On-farm processing offers a safe and
practical solution for these demands, which has been coupled with our provision
of a full service for the customer providing Advice, Products and Processing to
high independently certifiable standards. To compliment the mill and mixing business,
we have developed a large range of feed products and supplements. The Company
offers and supplies a full range of straights, proteins, minerals, mineral straights and
additives. Most products can be supplied bagged or in bulk. The Company also offers
a range of bespoke feeds made to order at our depot for customers who have no
access to their own grain or who have run out.

The business now trades in the whole of Southern England from Cornwall in the west
to Kent in the East. We can supply pallets all over the UK.

To capitalise on our own experience, we have also developed the mobile plant sales
business. Mobile machines have been supplied to a number of independent
contractors outside of the B & W area. With our fully equipped workshop and qualified
fitter, we are able to also able to offer a full service for repairs and maintenance. We
also have facilities to service and repair horseboxes and trailers, shoot and estate
vehicles.

Other sectors within B & W have also been developed, the Buschhoff distributorship held also covers a range of on-farm fixed milling equipment suited to the larger on-farm processor. This sector has seen recent strong growth in demand and we have installed equipment right across the UK. We can design, supply, install and offer a complete back up service designed to meet the needs of each individual customer.

Lastly, our Grainstore Cleaning and Fumigation service offers seasonal cleaning and fumigation services to farms and grainstore operators. This division has also seen significant growth over the past few years as quality of grain becomes of increasing importance.

Whatever you require from B&W you can be assured that we aim to deliver a first class product with a first class service.
