About Us

A brief history of Goldingham Contracts Ltd & Agricultural Supply Services

1991

Goldingham Contracts started out of the ashes of West Midland Farmers Contracts Department. Charles learned his craft at West Mid for 17 years, starting in their seeds department in 1974 and, aged 27, he quickly moved onto running the contract services department. This was a brilliant training ground, however, he had greater ambitions!

With a wife, 3 month old daughter, a large mortgage and an even bigger overdraft Goldingham Contracts was born.
The business began with one second hand mobile seed cleaner, 3 pest control staff and liquid fertiliser agency.

1998

Farm Assurance schemes began. During the winter conference at RAC Charles realised he could help farmers source the various products they needed to comply with the scheme- Protected lights, Insect traps and Moisture Meters, he was then approached about supplying Crop Cooling Pedestals.

2001

Charles bought Agricultural Supply Services. This fitted in well with the existing range of products being sold by Goldingham Contracts. Instantly the business became a national company supplying equipment to farmers and attending the large agricultural shows such as Cereals & LAMMA

2014/5

In 2014 the business had started to outgrow the current office, so plans were put in place to build a new office at Windmill Barn in Whitminster to allow for expansion with the move taking place the following year.

2016

To allow for the extra work taken on, an additional member of staff, Joel, came to run the new mobile seed cleaner and help further expand the Agricultural Supply Services business
