Manitou Group, a world reference in the handling, aerial work platform and earth moving sectors, announced the complete overhaul of its global compact loader lineup along with the launch of a new line of telehandlers dedicated to the North American market at ConExpo, the largest construction event in the United States. The group’s aim is to present its international ambitions and consolidate its development.
One year after announcing a massive $74 million investment plan to expand and modernize its U.S. production facilities and develop innovative product lines, Manitou Group presented a brand-new range of compact skid steer and track loaders for which the North American market represents half of the global market at ConExpo. Manufactured at the Madison facility in South Dakota, the line meets many needs, such as road construction, demolition or land leveling. A brand-new range of telehandlers, specifically designed for the North American market and assembled in Yankton, South Dakota, was also presented at the group’s booth.
