US-based Morbark has continued to expand the distributor network of its mini tool carrier business Boxer Equipment, which it acquired from Mertz Manufacturing at the end of 2012.

In the last eight months, it said it had added 25 new distributors to Boxer Equipment’s network, including operations in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, China, Bermuda, Malaysia, Singapore, Uruguay, South Africa, as well new dealers in its domestic US market.

Many of the new distributors operate from more than one location – in China, for instance, new distributor Greenman Machinery Company has over 100 locations.

Mark Rau, Morbark dealer development manager, said it was adding companies that would give its customers high-quality service. "The Boxer product line has been a great addition to our equipment portfolio, and we're pleased to see so many companies interested in representing Boxer equipment," he added.
