Our Story
A Passion for Machinery, Farming & Service
Taits Rural began its journey in 2018 on Taits Road in Canterbury, in the South Island of New Zealand. Since 2020 we have been based in Southland, where we continue to operate today.
Founded by father-and-son team Glen and Bruno Malcolm, the business is built on a lifelong passion for machinery and farming. What started as a small after-school venture— (Bruno dismantling old hay mowers in the back shed) has steadily grown into something much bigger.
Today, Taits Rural is powered by a small but dedicated team, holding thousands of used mower parts in stock. Every part is carefully checked, cleaned, and prepared for dispatch across New Zealand and around the world.
Over the years, we’ve become a trusted name among farmers, dealers, rural service mechanics, and contractors nationwide. We specialize in used hay mowers and round balers for both parts and resale, helping keep machinery running without breaking the bank.
Be sure to bookmark us—you never know when we might have just the part or machine you need, potentially saving you a significant cost.
We’re always on the lookout for new stock too, so if you’ve got an old mower or round baler tucked away under the hedge, get in touch—we’d love to help you turn it into cash.
