I have recently formed my own company called YPD Golf Ltd after working nearly 22 years in the Golf and Sports Industry in Ireland. I also have 4 years experience in Scotland in Sales with a Sportsturf Construction Company. I am extremely delighted to be the Irish Distributor for Paraide and Duchell supplying a wide range of top quality Golf Course Accessories and Driving Range Equipment. We have been working successfully together for 17 years and look forward to developing the range further. With the addition of Bespoke signage from Martyn Lane Signs I can furnish the Golf Course from Tee to Green. Martyn and I have been working together for over 15 years and his signage speaks for itself. To complete my product range for the Golf Industry I am also a Distributor for the very popular Melspring range of Fertilisers. After recent full trials in Ireland it proves to be very cost effective with less fungicide, growth regulators and produces excellent results with low input of nutrients. Obviously reduction in fuel and labour costs is a plus. New e-mail is yvonne@ypdgolf.ie
