Dealer to represent Potain in Western Canada for top-slewing tower cranes and supply Potain self-erecting range across the country.
Potain has expanded its top-slewing sales and services further into Western Canada through its authorized dealer, Cropac Equipment. The agreement adds to Cropac’s existing product lineup in the region. Cropac also offers Potain’s self-erecting tower cranes throughout Canada.
“Cropac is proud to expand our Potain distribution to offer top-slewing cranes and service in the western part of the country,” said Bill Finkle, Cropac’s president. “We look forward to a productive partnership and to be able to service our customers across Canada with Potain’s exceptional range of products.”
Cropac has been a Potain self-erecting dealer in Eastern Canada for over 17 years and has played a key role in developing and growing the self-erecting cranes market in the country, said Daiane Quinlan, Potain’s North America sales director.
“We are excited to expand our partnership with Cropac to include the top-slewing tower crane product line in the British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan provinces,” she said. “The partnership with Bill and team strengthens our commitment to provide the best tower cranes in the market with the best local product support for our Canadian customers.”
