In October 2015, Babcock was appointed as the official dis- tributor in South Africa of Terex Trucks’ off-highway rigid and articulated trucks that are used in mining, quarry and construction applications. From the highlands of Scotland where Terex Trucks is headquartered to the coal fields of Middelburg and home to Bab- cock’s flagship state-of-the-art branch, the two companies have been working hard over the last year to forge a pioneering spirit and a combined reinvigorated attitude towards performance, quality, customer care and after-sales service.
