Tidd Ross Todd Ltd has expanded its team with two dedicated Hiab sales engineers. Andrew Farrell is in the North Island while Matthew Tabb is responsible for the South Island of New Zealand. This initiative aims to strengthen TRT’s presence in the transport and truck loader crane sectors in New Zealand.
TRT is the nationwide dealer for the complete stable of Hiab products, including Hiab truck cranes and Marine cranes, Zepro truck tail lifts, Jonsered, Loglift log cranes and recycling cranes, Multilift equipment, and Moffett truck-mounted forklifts.
Andrew joined the team this year and brings extensive experience to his new role, with 17 years of expertise in the New Zealand transport and heavy automotive sectors.
He has held various positions in sales, after-sales, and management, which have equipped him with a well-rounded understanding of the industry.
“Upon becoming a member of the TRT team, I’m genuinely excited to be part of a company that continually pushes the limits and wholeheartedly embraces innovation. Embracing this new role is an invigorating challenge, and I’m enthusiastic about making a substantial contribution,” says Andrew.
Matthew, a valued member of the TRT team for more than two years, has exhibited impressive growth throughout his tenure with the company.
His journey began in the warehouse and he quickly advanced to a sales position, demonstrating TRT’s dedication to supporting the growth of its employees.
Matthew’s enthusiasm for the heavy transport sector naturally drove him to seek a more direct role. As the Hiab specialist for the South Island, Matthew is responsible for selling and supporting the comprehensive range of Hiab products.
He says he’s proud to work with such a renowned brand and provide customers with tailored material handling solutions that meet their unique requirements.
The collaborative and customer-centric culture at TRT holds significant value for him, motivating his commitment to providing exceptional service.
“It has been an amazing experience so far. These machines are incredible, and I’m keen to grow the brand here in New Zealand. Selling my first crane was a significant milestone, as it validated all the time and effort I invested in this role and the product itself,” says Matthew.
TRT’s general manager of capital whole goods, Glen Harnett, emphasises that the restructuring of TRT’s Hiab division reflects a substantial commitment to the company’s mission of offering cutting-edge solutions within the heavy transport and lifting industry.
“The Hiab brand has held a respected position in New Zealand for many years, and our commitment is to propel it even further,” says Glen.
“We have a remarkable team and an outstanding product. Our aspiration is for Hiab to be synonymous with excellence in cranes.”
