Manitou Group has earmarked €80 million for the redevelopment and expansion of its French telehandler production sites in Ancenis and Laillé, and new aerial work platform unit in Candé.
Part of a strategic five-year plan to reduce the company’s environmental footprint, sustainably increase production capacity and strengthen its local presence, the projects include the construction of new buildings on each of the sites, as well as the reorganisation of existing infrastructures.
“The dynamics of our markets observed since the last quarter of 2020, and the need to industrialise our future electric and hybrid models, reinforce our decision to invest in this innovative equipment, in line with our determination to accelerate our green transition,” says Elisabeth Ausimour, president of the product division.
