Partner Sought
- Expected Role of a Partner
-
The ideal partners are distributors with a good knowledge of, and connections in, the farming business. They will be expected to interact with the French company regularly, e.g. via monthly calls. Part of their work will involve, among other things, organising on-field demonstrations. They will be trained by the French company for that purpose.
They will have to be responsive to any enquiries by farmers regarding the performance of the robots and liaise, if necessary, with the French company for support. - Type and Size of Partner
