Tadano merges all European sales

Tadano has confirmed that the European Demag and Tadano sales operations will merge as part of its “One Tadano” business strategy for the region. The move follows the integration of the German region earlier this month – see: More Tadano Demag integration.

Thomas Schramm of Demag and Klaus Kröppel of Tadano will now both lead sales efforts for the two brands but will cover different regions. Schramm will look after the Benelux region, Russia, Asia Pacific, Turkey and France, while Kröppel will be responsible for Austria, Germany, and Switzerland, the UK, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Italy and the Nordic countries.

By working as one and leveraging synergies, we are stronger together in support of our customers’ success.”

“The integration of Demag into the Tadano group elevated Tadano to a full range supplier of lifting solutions and filled in product gaps on both sides. We are now working to leverage technological and operational synergies made available to Tadano through the Demag acquisition. As we continue along our path to becoming ‘One Tadano,’ our focus remains on supporting our customers and their success in the best, most efficient way possible.”
