The new facility will be managed by Anand Maheshwari and is part of the company’s strategy to develop its production and distribution activities in a market that has high growth potential. The warehouse inventory will be dedicated to spare parts for the machines manufactured at Manitou’s Indian plant, which is also located in Greater Noida, and ships its production within Asia, but also to South America and Africa, where Indian made Manitou or Gehl compact track loaders, telehandlers and backhoe loaders are distributed.
