Canadian growers can now buy their ARA smart sprayer directly from Univerco in Quebec.
Ecorobotix is pleased to announce that the revolutionary ARA ultra-high precision sprayer is now available through a distributor in Canada. This exciting development is made possible through a partnership with Univerco, a renowned family-owned company based in Napierville, Quebec.
Univerco’s extensive expertise and dedication to innovation perfectly aligns with Ecorobotix's mission of facilitating everyday operations for farmers. The company works closely with international producers to develop efficient and high-quality products tailored to different production types and volumes. Since its establishment in 1978, they have been at the forefront of delivering professional and innovative solutions, making them an ideal partner for Ecorobotix.
Alain Grégoire, Univerco General Manager, comments on the collaboration.
“Univerco is proud to be associated with the Ecorobotix state of the art technology in order to offer growers a solution that can improve their bottom line while being environmentally friendly.”
Univerco is gearing up to showcase ARA at several upcoming events in Canada. The sprayer has already garnered significant interest from prospective buyers, reflecting the market's eagerness for cutting-edge agricultural technology. The ARA sprayer's ultra-high precision capabilities are revolutionizing the industry by significantly reducing manual labor, input costs, chemical drift, CO2 emissions, and enhancing crop yield by reducing phytotoxicity.
Following the successful signing of the distribution agreement, Ecorobotix continues to expand its presence in the Canadian market. In late May, they proudly announced their collaboration with two of Canada's top vegetable growers, solidifying their commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions to Canada’s thriving agricultural sector. As the company expands its global reach, the partnership with Univerco marks another significant milestone in Ecorobotix's journey towards sustainable modern agriculture worldwide.
