Annual Discount Level Review

We have finished calculating your 2023 discount levels, which are based on your 2022 account turnover (combined for all products).

Our operating system & webcart have now been updated with the changes; please check your 2022 turnover with us (using your own operating system) to see if you have moved up or down the three different discount levels.

Our current discount schedule can be downloaded from our website, once you have logged-in (please contact us if you have forgotten your login details).


Supplier Price Increases

Effective for all deliveries from the dates shown below (Regardless of when the order was placed). New price lists will be available to download from our website shortly prior to the effective dates

Honda Engines & Accessory Kits: 1st April 2023.
Kubota Engines & Accessory Kits: 1st March 2023 (1st January 2023 for emergency direct orders from Japan).

Please note that some suppliers may impose price increases without prior notification, in these rare cases they will become effective immediately.

In addition, due to rising freight costs, our carriage charges will also be reviewed shortly & implemented during January/February.


Engine Manufacturer Production Delays

*Long lead-times for certain engines are still a major concern, please urgently review your current stock & future requirements!*

Production capacity, component sourcing, shipping constraints & post-Brexit delays remain an issue across all engine manufacturers for certain models.

We strongly advise all customers (Especially OEM’s) to confirm current & future requirements ASAP (Covering both 2023 & 2024).

Place firm orders now with future call-off dates to get in the queue for our current stock & future deliveries (Large volume future call-off orders may be subject to a payment/stocking plan).


uni-power & Supplier Enquiry Response Time / ETA's & Delivery Dates

Both ourselves & our suppliers are currently receiving a high volume of enquiries, therefore responses may take longer than usual; please bear with us during this busy time. Please remember that our Website & Webcart can be utilised for many of your enquiries (contact us if you have forgotten your login details).\

During the current global supply/shipping crisis, please be advised that all ETA’s/delivery dates advised to you are estimated & cannot be guaranteed. Please utilise our supplier emergency order options for items that are required urgently (Reduced discounts & emergency order/carriage charges will apply in most cases).
