The company
Gooseford Farm
Founded in 1957, the ownership and management of Gooseford Farm belongs to the Courtier family, by Julian Courtier with the help of his two sons Chris and George. They currently own 400 mixed Friesian dairy cows that produce more than 7,500 litres of milk per year each. Before switching to dairy farming in 2016, the farm was originally a cattle and arable unit. In addition, Gooseford Farm has recently embarked on a new venture, providing farm-fresh milk and flavoured milkshakes through vending machines strategically placed in the surrounding area.
Julian Courtier
The use of Merlo telehandlers has allowed us to improve our business since 1995, when we bought our first Merlo, and since then we have had five.
Chris Courtier
At Gooseford Farm, Merlo does a fantastic job: he is very adaptable and can perform many tasks.
George Courtier
The hydrostatic transmission and its infinite speed control allow us to safely carry out all work on the farm. When needed, Merlo is the answer!
