Speaking at the opening of the new PDC he said, “We value Brazil to the utmost and its importance is growing more and more, along with its great potential in terms of both its people and its natural resources.

“Having seen the growing opportunities in this country, we are here today to fulfil our promise made two years ago to our staff and customers to open the new PDC in the country.”

The new facility will enable parts to be available quicker for customers throughout the country, via the company’s network of dealers.

Occupying an area of ​​1988m², the new PDC has involved an initial investment of over US$2 million, not including the value of the stock, with the goal of establishing an inventory of 12,000 items in 2024 to reduce delivery times by 70%.
