Written by Team Lely | Apr 20, 2018

It all began in March of 1972 for Richard and Susan Avila when they established Avila Dairy Equipment, Inc. in Hanford, California. In the 46 years they have been in business, they have created an environment of providing top-notch customer service for the dairymen in their area. In an effort to continue providing their customers with the latest technology and innovation in the industry, they made the decision to partner with Lely North America and become the newest Lely Center in our Lely dealer network.

“Through reviews, research and seeing the products first-hand, Lely seemed like the best choice for us,” explained Bill Davis, Office Manager at Avila Dairy Equipment, Inc. “Their responsibility and reliability matches up with our own values and there is a comfort level with them.”

With 15 employees, including 11 servicemen on staff, Avila strives to achieve 100 percent customer satisfaction. Bringing the Lely brand into their product offering is just another way they are working to bring the best product offerings to the dairymen in their area.

As the industry-leader in dairy innovation for over 25 years, Lely is honored to join forces with Avila Dairy Equipment, Inc. to help some of the nation’s most progressive dairies in their pursuit of a sustainable, profitable and enjoyable future. Avila Dairy Equipment, Inc. offers dairy equipment service, repair and maintenance as well as refrigeration and electrical motor services.

“We’re seeing the dairymen get excited and it’s infectious,” said Davis. “We had some options and Lely seemed to be the best choice for us all around. We have some old customers coming back to us now and we are gaining new customers as well after adding Lely products to our offerings.”
