Where you buy with confidence

Ernest Doe is a long established family firm with a network of branches in the South and East of England. Current Managing Director Angus Doe is the fifth generation of the family to have taken the helm during the company’s 100+ years of trading, with his father, Colin Doe, currently presiding as Chairman.

The firm supplies a huge amount of machinery; from garden mowers and chain saws to combine harvesters and construction excavators. Our philosophy is simple: To supply the best products and then to support them with the service facilities and expertise to keep them running perfectly.

Our Calor Gas section offers a tremendous selection of appliances as well as gas.

We also supply machinery and services to the agricultural, construction and professional groundcare machinery markets representing major manufacturers such as New Holland, Hyundai and Textron.
