Share acquisition ensures implementation of Strategy 2030 and PALFINGER's global Hooklift strategy
Palfinger AG acquires 35% minority interest in Guima Palfinger S.A.S. (Guima) from Compagnie Générale Vincent S.A.S., so that Palfinger holds 100% of shares in future. Guima is headquartered in Caussade, France, and is the central production plant for Hooklifts and Skiploaders within AG, having a significant market share in the EMEA region and a high export share to the NAM region.
The acquisition of the minority interest contributes strongly to the efficient implementation of Palfinger AG's Strategy 2030 and global Hooklift strategy. Andreas Klauser, CEO of Palfinger AG, sees this as a clear advantage: “This allows us to implement our localization strategy of producing in the region for the region. An important step in the ongoing development of the Global Palfinger Organization that we defined in Strategy 2030. It will accelerate decision-making processes and make them more flexible while swiftly capitalizing on cost synergies. We are happy to announce that, as majority owners of Palfinger France, the Vincent family remains one of Palfinger’s most important strategic partners and contributes to the overall result.“ This transaction enables Palfinger to bring together cross-product R&D initiatives and further integrate the Hooklift development site Caussade into Palfinger AG’s global R&D network.
Decision-making flexibility and speed are essential for a successful future. “The acquisition of this minority interest allows us to react quickly and efficiently to competitor and market developments in the EMEA, NAM and LATAM regions,” adds Andreas Klauser, CEO of Palfinger AG
