Are things on the up for horsebox manufacturers? Easy2Insure

[Easy2Insure] A recent report in the Financial Times suggests that niche motor industry businesses are currently bucking the economic trend and doing rather well.

Sleek Aerodynamic Design

EQUIHUNTER ENDURANCE – Sleek Aerodynamic Design

The report looked at a number of businesses in the usually hard-hit North East of England and found that, rather than struggling during one of the worst economic periods in decades, small manufacturers and specialist producers are doing particularly well financially.

One of those listed is the UK’s largest horsebox maker Equi-Trek. The firm is the largest maker of horse boxes in the UK and produces everything from £5,000 hitch and go trailers to luxury mobile homes for professional showjumpers that run into hundreds of thousands of pounds. So why are things looking so bright for horse box manufacturers, and could this be part of the ‘Olympic Legacy’ we’ve all heard so much about this year?

A little extra disposable income and some smart options such as group ownership and syndicates has also meant that more people are being encouraged to enter what was previously thought of as an elite sport. But there are still expenses and along with the tack, the equipment and, of course, the horse, owners need to be mobile. And that means investing in a horse box…..

Equestrian interests soar in China: Horse & Hound

[Horse & Hound] A riding population of 150,000 may not sound impressive, but starting from zero less than a decade ago, Chinese equestrianism is clearly going places.

Western breeds are popular, Warmbloods, Arabs and Quarter horses are favoured.

The world’s fastest growing economy has a new cash-rich middle class who, buoyed by interest from the 2008 Olympic Games, has quickly embraced “status” pursuits such as horse sport and golf.                                         equihunter horseboxes

Until recently, only a few hundred horses, mostly racers, were imported.

But in 2012, 2,000 thoroughbreds and sport horses — mostly from France, Germany, Ireland and Holland — entered China.

About 600 riding clubs cater for 50,000 serious riders and a further 100,000 ride weekly.

Li Yanyang, publisher of China’s main equestrian magazine, Horsemanship, believes growth is 15-20% a year and that £60million was spent on new facilities between 2010 and 2012

Western breeds are popular, Warmbloods, Arabs and Quarter horses are favoured.

“But local breeds and local crosses are cherished,” added Li Yanyang. “These horses are good doers and sturdy, their main appeal.”

China’s proud history was based on the back of warrior horses. Millions of indigenous ponies still work in rural areas, notably inner Mongolia and Xinjiang.

But because China has no culture of leisure riding and suffers from harsh winters, westernised activity is based round club-style resorts with multiple indoor schools.

They are mostly around Beijing and the affluent Yangtse and Pearl River deltas, the so-called “factory of the world”…..

The Duchess of Cambridge has taken up the favourite Royal pastime of riding, disclosing she was learning after finding a passion for horses.

Despite allegedly being allergic to the animals, she told Paralympic medallist Lee Pearson she had now taken up the sport.

Speaking at a Buckingham Palace reception for Olympic and Paralympic athletes, Mr Pearson disclosed he had even offered the Duchess of Cambridge dressage lessons after she confided in him.

Mr Pearson, who won his tenth Paralympic gold medal this year, said: “Kate said she’s learning to ride so I offered to give her some lessons.

“She held my medals and said how heavy they were, and asked if me if I’d been riding all my life.”

He added he had even given the Duchess advice after the Countess of Wessex made him aware the novice rider was allergic to horses.

“I said ‘so am I – but anti-histimines are wonderful’,” he disclosed.

The Duchess of Cambridge has previously displayed an affinity for horses after admitting she was moved to tears while watching the theatre production War Horse.

She was also seen enthusiastically supporting Zara Phillips at the Olympic Games, as she competed in the equestrian event.

Mr Pearson was just one of the Olympic and Paralympic medallist who spoke to the Duchess and other members of the Royal family at a reception last night.

The Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh, the Duke of York, the Princess Royal, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex, greeted athletes and praised them for their achievements……
