Finning signs agreement to become exclusive dealer of MultiDocker

EDMONTON, Aug. 13, 2018 /CNW/ - Finning Canada, a division of Finning International Inc. (TSX: FTT), has signed an agreement to become the exclusive dealer of MultiDocker in western Canada.  MultiDocker is the leading manufacturer of hydraulic material handlers for the forestry, scrap recycling and bulk handling industries.

"We are delighted to be the exclusive dealer for MultiDocker, a company with over 30 years' experience in manufacturing and distributing cargo handlers world-wide and a recognized leader in the customization of these products to meet individual industrial sector needs," says David Primrose, EVP core industries, Finning Canada. "The addition of the MultiDocker to our product offerings will enable us to provide our customers with a complete array of industry-specific solutions to meet all their material-handling needs."

This partnership with MultiDocker is a natural fit given the base machine is produced by Caterpillar and many of the parts are standard Cat® components that complement the Cat product portfolio. The products are also compatible with Finning's sales and service network. In addition to meeting demand in western Canada for the full line of rubber and track handlers, customers will also benefit from the exceptional after sales support, parts and service Finning provides.

MultiDocker material handlers have grown out of the company's industry expertise and innovative solutions. Combined with standard, reliable well-proven components manufactured in Europe and South America, they've been providing flexible material handling solutions to customers moving bulk materials and general cargo for three decades.

Finning will sell and provide parts and service for the full line of MultiDocker machine models from the latest diesel engines to electrically-driven units.
