Terberg Taylor Americas moves to new offices in Miami

Ferdinand Terberg, Vice-President of Terberg Taylor Americas LLC, commented on the recent relocation of the Miami office “Ron van Arkel set this office up in 2014, to serve North and South America. Since that time our operations have greatly expanded so we really needed more office and warehouse space. Our people wanted to stay in the area so we were delighted to find some great office space in the area, which we occupied on 1 October. There are 11 of us in the new offices, measuring around 370 m² (4000 sq ft). We now have a proper meeting room and can receive guests here. Having an attractive office also makes it easier to attract and retain good staff. Miami is a very convenient location

for supporting our distributors throughout the Americas and the time difference with the headquarters in Benschop is only six hours. We are also moving from two small ware­ houses to one larger one, around 930 m² (10,000 sq ft), with a staff of three. That is quite challenging as we do not want to interrupt deliveries. The warehouse only handles spare parts, new vehicles are shipped directly from the factory to our dealers. Continuing rapid growth These developments are due to our rapid growth, in 2022 our order intake for vehicles doubled and it is still rising. Of course, that

means we are also supplying more spare parts. The rising market share is the result both of the acceptance of our high quality product, offering a lower Total Cost of Ownership, and the excellent cooperation between Terberg and Taylor. Construction of our local production plant, in Columbus, Mississippi, is progressing well and we expect to start supplying US-built tractors early 2024.”

Tecbaco C.I. Técnicas Baltime de Colombia S.A. supplies organic and conventional bananas to markets worldwide. They also provide agricultural services for all parts of the banana production chain. Tecbaco has been using Terberg tractors for some time. They recently invested in another four YTs to handle containers in their yard. The operators are happy with the performance and robustness of the units and appreciate that the steering works well even on undulating and loose surfaces. They also like the comfortable cabs with air conditioning.
