The deal is an extension of the partnership the pair have shared since 2009, when Sandvik began working with Porter for sales and aftermarket support for its mobile crushers and screening range in New Zealand.
Porter will serve as a mobile distributor for the entire Australian territory, including Papua New Guinea and neighbouring islands, which Sandvik said will benefit all customers since more localised, customer-focused support for their areas will be available.
"The latest extension of the Sandvik relationship is an important progression for the brand in the region," Porter Equipment Australasia general manager Darren Ralph said.
"Sandvik Mobiles are global leaders in technology and productivity, and this development will ensure that the product is brought to the customer base efficiently. We aim to provide Sandvik Mobiles with a platform to propel the brand to new heights in Australia."
