The company is creating additional jobs at the new location with an integrated demonstration and training centre.

In a futher bid to expand operations in the North American market, the company will also be exhibiting at ConExpo this month in Las Vegas.

The company already has a presence in North America with a sales and service network of more than 1,000 partners, a mobile fleet of over 100 service vehicles, 4 manufacturing sites and 13 locations that offer custom-built solutions.

“We are here to stay. We are making this clear with the opening of our new headquarters in 2023. Supported by our absolute focus on our customers, we will use the next five years to significantly grow our market share in all product segments. At CONEXPO-CON/AGG, we are showing what we can do,” says Ismael Daneluz, vice president of sales and service region North and Latin America at Palfinger.
