Manitowoc family day

Manitowoc has hosted a family event attended by around 2,000 employees, retirees and their families at the Grove/Manitowoc plant Shady Grove in Pennsylvania.

The event featured live music, a picnic, a variety of games and activities as well as 30 of the company’s cranes. The company also raised awareness for Brooke's House, a local women's recovery centre for substance abuse, from where it has employed numerous women who have completed the programme.

Fun in the crane cab

“We are the last true American owned crane manufacturer and are very proud of this fact, and it really showed at the Family Day festivities. I want to thank everyone who attended. Manitowoc would not be successful without great people, and we have the very best in the lifting industry.”
