Handling EquipmEnt<br />

grows tHrougH<br />

CustomEr FoCus<br />

Launched in 2012 by chris dimock<br />

and Kristy abbott, the hornby-based<br />

company handling equipment canterbury<br />

has enjoyed rapid growth and built up a<br />

loyal customer base over its first four years.<br />

This is attributed to the extensive industry<br />

experience of its management and staff and<br />

their dedication to customer service.<br />

chris had been involved in the industry for<br />

the previous 15 years, and they have recently<br />

appointed a dedicated testing manager, who<br />

brings a wealth of lifting knowledge gained<br />

from many years’ experience in the industry.<br />

and as Kristy explains: “We focus on<br />

catering to our customers’ needs and doing<br />

everything we can to resolve situations. if<br />

they need something urgently, we respond as<br />

quickly as we can.”<br />

Their customer base includes farmers,<br />

transport companies, construction workers<br />

and tradesmen, engineering firms and<br />

home handymen. The company carries a<br />

wide range of products including lifting<br />

equipment such as chains and hoists,<br />

height safety equipment, rigging hardware,<br />

stainless fittings, rope, transport and lashing<br />

equipment, ag-quip fittings and chains for<br />

the farming sector and personal protection<br />

equipment (PPe) such as<br />

gloves, hard hats and boots.<br />

handling equipment<br />

canterbury’s latest innovation<br />

has been the introduction<br />

of its ecommerce website.<br />

This targets three main client<br />

groups – resellers and trade<br />

accounts, who have a special login facility,<br />

and the general public. a key feature of the<br />

website is that each group will see pricing<br />

specific to them, and will be able to order<br />

and purchase products online. Brands offered<br />

include Miller, Spanset, Titan, elephant and<br />

Petzl.<br />

another important customer benefit,<br />

which handling equipment believes is<br />

unique to them, is that as a Farmlands card<br />

partner they are offering customers the<br />

opportunity to use their Farmlands card<br />

when purchasing online.<br />

“This is especially useful for our rural<br />

customers, who can order online and get<br />

very competitive pricing as well,” says Kristy.<br />

handling equipment canterbury is a<br />

member of Lifting equipment engineer<br />

new Zealand incorporated. With the new<br />

regulations around workplace safety, the<br />

Neighbour<br />

Hello<br />

company has introduced a mobile height<br />

safety and lifting equipment testing and<br />

inspection service. “This gives our customers<br />

the ability to purchase their equipment and<br />

also have it tested by the same company,”<br />

Kristy says.<br />
