Kornilova added: ‘Ventalus is created to meet the needs of the growing Russian market for powered access products and telehandlers. The market for powered access equipment is still quite small compared to other markets, however the potential for growth is there. The market recognises the tremendous time and money saving potential when using powered access”.
“From experience I know that local after sales service is extremely important for Russian customers, that is why Ventalus has set up a network of well-established and trained service partners in the geographical areas where we are selling”.
