Open Day / Diwrnod Agored
On the 13th of September the Carmarthenshire showground was buzzing, showcasing to West Wales some of the best machinery in the country. Arwel’s Agri Services was established 14 years ago and is run in partnership by husband and wife Arwel and Georgina Cornock-Evans. The business is located near Pumsaint, Carmarthenshire on Arwel’s home ground and running a business like this has always been a dream of his ever since his days as a mechanic at Riverlea. The success of the company has resulted in Arwel’s Agri currently employing 14 members of staff who each hold a valuable position within the team, from sales to mechanics to finance to the staff at the stores.
Ar y 13eg o Fedi, cynhaliwyd Diwrnod Agored ar Faes y Sioe Caerfyrddin, Nantyci a hynny gan gwmni Arwel’s Agri Services. Roedd y diwrnod yn adlewyrchiad arbennig o’r peiriannau mae’r cwmni yn gwerthu a hefyd yn gyfle iddynt i ddiolch i’r cwsmeriaid am eu cymorth. Erbyn hyn mae’r cwmni wedi bodoli ers dros 14 mlynedd ar ôl ei sefydlu gan gwr a gwraig Arwel a Georgina Cornock-Evans. Lleolir Arwel’s Agri ger pentref Pumsaint, Sir Gaerfyrddin a dechreuodd y cyfan ar ôl i Arwel treulio blynyddoedd fel peiriannydd i gwmni Riverlea. Mae llwyddiant y cwmni wedi datblygu yn gyflym ac erbyn hyn mae 14 o bobl yn cael eu cyflogi a phob un ohonynt yn werthfawr i’r tîm.
