South Africa?s Enterprise Minister Arlene Foster has announced that Terex Finlay is strengthening its position in South Africa. The minister said the company, a global leader in tracked mobile materials processing equipment, has located two key sales and technical support staff in Johannesburg, to support a newly appointed distributor for the region.

The Tyrone-based company has also just sold its first I-100 impact crusher into South Africa. This innovative recycling machine was developed with the support of investment, placing the company in a position to gain market share in a new and growing segment for South Africa. Minister Foster was speaking during a visit to the Terex Finlay stand at the inaugural bauma Africa trade show in Johannesburg. She was leading an Invest Northern Ireland trade mission to South Africa in which several other participating companies exhibited on a stand organised by the agency.
