Corporate Growth in Europe

Ruthmann Holdings GmbH, a Time Manufacturing Company, announced in a press release yesterday that it now has exclusive distribution rights for France Elevateur products in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. In a press release, the company announced that it will also assume existing contracts and orders currently held by FE Deutschland, the Leipzig-based service provider owned by France Elevateur.

A Great Opportunity for Both Companies

This is a great opportunity for the companies, both Time Manufacturing Company brands, to better serve their customers.

  • “We are proud to distribute France Elévateur products in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and are pleased to be able to serve our customers even better with a new service location in Leipzig.” – Uwe Strotman, Managing Director, Ruthmann Holdings GmbH

  • “Ruthmann is synonymous with quality and reliability, and we are delighted to have our subsidiary join the company’s maintenance centers. We are also confident that we will work together with Ruthmann to develop our sales in Germany and strengthen our presence in the country,” – Charles GOFFIN, Director, France Elévateur

 

Ruthmann Holdings GmbH & FE Group are Time Manufacturing Company Brands

The recent announcement by Ruthmann Holdings GmbH notes that since June 2022, the France Elévateur and Movex brands have both been part of Time Manufacturing Company, just like Versalift and Ruthmann. These acquisitions therefore enable the natural development of partnerships between the group’s brands.

Leveraging Our Strengths To Benefit Our Customers

This integration of service departments in Germany, Austria and Switzerland creates powerful efficiencies that result in better service for all of our customers, and demonstrates the power of thoughtfully leveraging our strengths as we work together. As a global manufacturer of vehicle mounted aerial lifts and specialty access equipment for electric utility, telecommunications, bridge inspection, tree care and other fleet-supported industries, Time Manufacturing Company continues to create value for customers worldwide.
