Tidd Ross Todd Limited (TRT) has expanded its New Zealand operations and moved into its new, larger premises in Christchurch.
The move aims to extend TRT’s capacity and capability to service the company’s network of customers on the South Island of New Zealand.
Larger warehouse facilities will enable TRT to carry a greater variety of truck and trailer parts locally.
The additional warehousing will also allow the company to hold more parts and equipment for the Hiab range of products, including truck loader cranes, Zepro tail lifts, Jonsered log cranes, Multilift, and Moffett truck mounted forklifts.
TRT’s initial focus will be supporting its customers and service networks, but also aims to expand the number of products and services it offers.

The move to larger premises was made in conjunction with MC Transport Repairs, which purchased the NZ Trucks Brydone Road workshops, and expanded its operations to 48 mechanics and 25 workshop bays. TRT will directly supply all parts for this new service operation.
TRT Christchurch’s branch manager, Ed Foster, said the expansion in the company’s warehousing will enable it to have greater stock levels, ensuring its customers have the application they need, when they need it.
TRT’s National Sales Manager, Gavin Halley, said the company is excited to continue to expand its product offering in the South Island.
“It is an integral part of TRT’s strategic growth plan. We have also recruited another six parts experts and warehouse staff locally to make this possible,” he said.
The company’s planned expansion will also include the development of South Island based service and installation of machinery seating solutions at the new site.
