Mobicon Systems has partnered with Portstar Machinery, New Zealand’s one-stop-shop for high-quality equipment, parts and service. Mobicon Systems has been supplying mini-straddle carriers to New Zealand businesses for over 20 years. The appointment of Portstar as a dealer will allow Mobicon to expand its reach across New Zealand, providing both current and future customers with equipment and service.

Australian-based Mobicon Systems has been designing and manufacturing mini-straddle carriers for over 25 years, supplying machines to Europe, the USA, the UK, Asia, Africa and Oceania.

Jesse Schultz, CEO of Mobicon Systems, notes that "Portstar are a well-established NZ brand, with a long history of providing their customers with high-quality machinery, and exceptional service”.  

Portstar provides new and used machinery for both purchase and hire. Its focus is on technical support, with all staff having a strong background in operating and repairing heavy machinery.  Customers include Ports of Auckland, and the company works across the Pacific islands, including Vanuatu, Samoa, Tonga, Fiji and East Timor, and Australia.  

For Portstar founder Ian Magee, partnering with Mobicon has ended the search for a light-weight container handler. “We have long been looking for a suitable light-weight container handling option to add to our range. Our priorities have always been reliability and total cost of life of (the) machine. On this basis, Mobicon is a perfect partner for us.”
