LiuGong has opened a European headquarters in Almere, Netherlands, the company said. The facilities are about 4,000 square meters and the complete yard is an additional 4,000 square meters. The facility is about 35 kilometers from Amsterdam and will serve as LiuGong’s sales hub, technical support and spare parts distribution center for existing and potential customers in the region.
“The new office will strengthen our presence as a top construction equipment manufacturer brand, and to service our dealers and customers in the whole European market,” said Wang Xiaohua, chairman of Guangxi LiuGong Machinery Corp. “Our staff will be able to interact more closely with our customers in Europe, and gain a deeper knowledge and understanding of the needs of each local market. Not only will this allow us to react to customers more effectively, it will also help us develop products that will better meet the local requirements.”
LiuGong has been selling machines in Europe for more than five years, selling products specifically designed to meet European requirements; from engine emissions regulations to machine size and scale to cab ergonomics.
