Charles Wright and Sons Ltd are a family run agricultural merchant and contractor based in Old Leake near Boston specialising in fertiliser, grain, lime and sugar beet lifting & haulage covering Lincolnshire and the surrounding areas. The seven Lorries we have are used for Sugar Beet haulage during the winter months which run alongside our sugar beet harvester and the fertiliser and the lime spreading side of the business.
We operate our own lorries and trailers including tippers, curtain siders and tankers which enables us to offer an efficient and hands on transport operation. Fertiliser can be supplied and delivered as well as applied in either liquid or granular. We can also supply and apply lime including British Sugar Limex and Woldlime.

Services
Originally Mr Charles Wright (Senior) started the business trading as a bakery buying flour from local flour mills to produce bread and deliver on one of the 14 bread vans we had at the time to the local area. The bread was also sold through a small shop in the village of Old Leake which was owned by the business.
Contracting is a major part of the business that has grown more especially in recent times with new ventures being taken on to meet customer needs. Fertiliser and lime spreading - Using our 3 mounted Amazone ZA-TS spreaders and trailed KRM Bredal's on our fleet of Fendt tractors. Liquid fertiliser application - Using one 36metre 4500L and one 24metre 4000L Chafer trailed machines on Fendt tractors on Michelin xeo bib low ground pressure tyres.
Sugar beet harvestingIn 2010 Charles Wright & Sons Ltd recognised the trend for 'just in time sugar beet harvesting' at this time we decided to purchase our first Sugar Beet harvester to begin lifting Sugar Beet for a growing list of customers. Today we operate a Ropa Tiger 5 Harvester lifting sugar beet all over Lincolnshire for both the Newark and Wissington British Sugar factories.
Lime spreading near BostonThe core of Charles Wright and Sons business today is the fertiliser and lime delivered and spread system. As a company we can supply the full Yara solid fertiliser range which the business has been doing for over 20 years.
