Metso adds Florida to Mellot’s distributor territory

Finland-based aggregates crushing and screening equipment maker Metso says the territory of its distributor Mellot has been expanded to include the state of Florida, effective Jan. 1.

“This territory expansion builds on Mellott’s existing Metso coverage in the southeastern United States, serving both aggregate producers and the contractor market,” Metso says, adding that Mellott staff has more than 30 years of experience in the industry.

According to Metso, Warfordsburg, Pennsylvania-based Mellott has played a key role in advancing Metso’s distribution strategy in other parts of the U.S. The territory expansion into Florida has been made to enhance regional access to Metso’s crushing and screening equipment, spare and wear parts and services, adds Metso.

Mellott lists locations in six cities, including its hometown of Warfordsburg and in Lakeland, Florida. The company also operates from sites in Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina and Tennessee.

“Mellott has a strong track record in customer satisfaction as a Metso distributor, and they have been recognized with Metso’s distributor awards for their sales and service performance and capabilities,” Metso Vice President Steve Cianci says.

“It is essential that we work with distributor partners who are willing to invest alongside us to ensure the best possible customer experience. Mellott has demonstrated a clear ability to scale its business with Metso through disciplined investment, operational excellence and a strong focus on customers.”

Metso says Mellott’s continued growth has been fueled by a customer-first approach that prioritizes exceptional service and reliable parts availability, building strong relationships by helping customers solve real-world processing challenges across aggregate, slag, construction and environmental applications.

“We are thrilled about this expanded partnership with Metso, as it enables us to deliver even greater value to our loyal Florida customer base that has trusted us for over 30 years,” Mellott President Nick Ecker says.
