A White Christmas

For those of you who don't know, we have had some pretty cold weather so far. It's been a long time since we had a white Christmas but we may be lucky this year.
It snowed over the weekend and the city is white with snow! I hope it stays for at least the next week, long enough to let our dealers visiting for our annual Christmas meeting see our lovely city in white!

Major deal with Carlsson Skogsmaskiner Sweden

Yukon Industries are proud to announce we have just signed a major deal with the Swedish Forest Services to supply chainsaws and log splitters through our first Scandinavian dealer Carlsson Skogsmaskiner in Gothenburg Sweden. After much back and fourth in the 3-way negotiations Carlsson have signed an exclusive 5 year deal to supply and maintain Yukon machinery to the Swedish Forest Service nation wide. We are looking forward to long term relations with our first mainland European dealer to supply a wide range of goods in Sweden as well as being our main dealer for Scandinavia.

ISO 9001 arrives.

For several months we have be putting new and improved business systems in place to comply with ISO 9001 and it has paid off.
We are now happy and proud to say we are ISO9001 compliant! (I am sure many of you have heard we were moving toward this recently)
What does this mean for our dealers?
Many large companies and nearly all government departments require equipment originating from, and backed up by, an ISO accredited supplier. This means we (along with our dealers) can now supply with confidence to such companies and government departments who require products from certified suppliers.
Certificate details and copies will be mailed out to all dealers over the next few days.
You can download a copy in PDF format in our dealers section of our web site www.yukonind.com/dealers
