Bronto Skylift has named TRI-Lift as a Bronto Skylift distributor in Canada.
TRI-Lift is a division of TRI-Crane, which was founded by three partners, Jason Hanna, Mark Williams and Aaron Hanna in March 2019 and is based in Ontario.
TRI-Lift was established in 2020 and will be carrying out sales, service, spare parts, and rentals of Bronto Skylift’s non-insulated aerial platforms.
“When we got to know Bronto Skylift, we did some background research and saw great potential in the Canadian market. We have good experiences of the European OEMs. I know how Finns do business and really look forward to the cooperation,” said Mark Williams, Partner, TRI-Crane.
TRI-Lift and Bronto Skylift were brought together by Jason Darnell, sales manager of Bronto Skylift, who knew the crew from his previous career.
In addition to selling and renting the non-insulated models of Bronto Skylift aerial platforms, TRI-Lift will provide full maintenance and spare part services for Bronto aerials. First 230’ model, the S230XR is already ordered and will be available for demonstration and rentals in March 2021.
“I look forward to working with the TRI-Lift team. I believe they are one of the industry leaders who know the market in this country,” said Jason Darnell, sales manager, Bronto. “I also feel this team is well respected within the industry, so customers will take their new partnership with Bronto Skylift as serious as they do.”
The TRI-Lift crew truly enjoys working hands-on in the industry’s most difficult projects and going the extra mile for their customers. “It’s our passion to always find a solution even for the most difficult projects, that nobody else wants to do. When others turn away, we go there,” Jason Hanna, partner, TRI-Crane.
Being able to provide Bronto aerial platforms gives TRI-Lift the flexibility to cover multiple industries and complicated projects in the filming industry, the wind sector, and other applications.
“We are very excited about the distributorship,” said Aaron Hanna, partner, TRI-Crane. “There are a lot of industries and applications that this kind of equipment can be utilized.”
All three co-owners of TRI-Crane have extensive careers in the lifting and rental industry. Williams is a third-generation family business owner and has grown into the industry from a young age. Jason Hanna has been in the industry from the late ‘80s and served as a crane operator and in various managerial roles before coming the president of TRI-Crane and TRI-Lift. Aaron Hanna is the vice president of sales at TRI-Lift and brings in 20 years of sales experience in the industry. Aaron also started as a crane operator, so there is vast knowledge about the daily operations in the lifting industry.
“With their extensive knowledge, partners of TRI-Lift enable us to explore and expand our market in Canada,” said Janne Pulkkinen, vice president, Bronto Skylift Inc.
Current distributor, Hycotec Inc, will also continue to operate as a Bronto Skylift distributor in Canada.
