Ledgard Pruning Systems Information

Ledgard Pruning Systems commenced operations in early 1990 when its founder (McLaren Vale based) Trevor Ledgard went to market to offer a mechanical pruning system developed specifically for the Australian vineyard market. Trevor combined his engineering background with his successful grape growing experience to make a machine from scratch, his focus was to build the best mechanical pruning machine in the market despite the risk that a high cost might be seen as a barrier. After more than 20 years of successful growth Trevor sold the business to John Harnett in 2012. John also grew up on a successful high quality vineyard in McLaren Vale and spent the first 30 years of his working life working in the Heavy Equipment sector. His background in service, sales and finally business management has brought a new focus and drive to the company and now seeks to grow into new sectors of the market.
