Hills Machinery, the Terex Trucks dealer in North and South Carolina, has improved its market share around 80 percent in its territories, netting it the company's Top Dealer Award.
“Since Volvo Construction Equipment took ownership of Terex Trucks, there has been huge investment in the products and they’re now producing great articulated dump trucks,” says Jim Hills, co-founder and president of Hills Machinery. “The latest trucks are robust, reliable and perform well in whatever conditions you put them in. They are good value for money, simple to operate, and easy to maintain. All of this, together with a generous warranty and both ours and Terex Trucks’ strong commitment to product support and parts availability, makes a very attractive offer for customers–I think that’s why we’ve seen such a strong increase in demand for the trucks.”
Hills Machinery started selling, renting, leasing, and servicing the TA300 and TA400 in 2018. The company has eight locations across the Carolinas and around 130 employees. Founded by Jim and Adam Hills in 2007, the dealership supplies complementary construction equipment as well as attachments and ground-engaging tools.
With a diverse territory which includes everything from coastal lowlands, where the trucks are operating in very wet conditions, to mountains, where the trucks carry heavy loads up and down steep gradients, means Hills Machinery serves customers in a variety of industries including construction, mining, land clearing, and road building.
“North America is an important market for us,” says Robert Franklin, sales & marketing director Americas at Terex Trucks. “We want to grow our business in the region and reach new customers, which is exactly what Hills Machinery is helping us achieve. The team has excellent market, product, and application knowledge, and they do whatever it takes to satisfy customer needs. They are committed to delivering the best products together with the best customer support, and I think that’s the secret to their success.”
Terex Trucks has a network of around 40 dealers in North America.
