From 1st July 2020, a new network of Hyster® dealers is in effect across in France and includes two Hyster® dealers dedicated to supporting customers in port and terminal applications.
The Hyster® dealers specialising in port solutions are based near the ports and have specialist Big Truck technicians and experienced technical sales teams, providing support on popular equipment such as Hyster® Empty Container Handlers, Hyster® RS46 ReachStackers and Hyster® Big Trucks, with capacity to handle up to 48 tonnes.
