About UsDetail>>

Joseph Cyril Bamford launched the construction and agricultural equipment manufacturing company that bears his initials, in 1945. He began his business in a garage that measured 12 feet by 15 feet.

Today, JCB’s world headquarters is one of the finest engineering factories in Europe. The company that began as a ‘one man band’ now employs over 6,000 people and produces over 250 products – with bases in the UK, the USA, India, Germany and South America.  It also sells a full range of equipment in over 150 countries.

Of course, it’s no use producing unique products if they don’t meet the customers’ needs. In our business, an innovative and efficient machine needs an innovative and efficient support system.

JCB is a truly international business offering local support via a 24 hour parts back-up facility and complete after-sales care. Our high quality, cost efficient machines offer low downtime and real peace of mind.

Great ideas. Brilliant engineering solutions. Superb service. Reliable back-up. They all combine to create a guaranteed JCB worldwide performance standard.
