Trimble acquired Loadrite and its parent company Actronic Holdings in 2013.
Loadrite has been operating in New Zealand since 2007 when brothers Steve and Phil Alloway began business as the exclusive distributers, starting in the quarry and mining sectors.
They have since expanded the company in New Zealand to operate in all sectors that Loadrite operate in globally.

“Along with 335sq m of warehousing, the facility also has 384sq m of production space, a mechanical workshop and an electrical workshop.
