PATERSON SIMONS ATTENDS KONECRANES LIFT TRUCKS GLOBAL PARTNER CONFERENCE IN SWEDEN

In News, News Snippets, Ports & Logistics by Alisa Evans

Paterson Simons attended the recent Konecranes Lift Trucks Partner Conference in Sweden, joining a global network of distributors.

Over the course of three impactful days, we joined both long-standing and newly appointed Konecranes Lift Trucks partners to reflect on the present and look towards the future.

Under the theme “Geared for Growth,” the conference focused on accelerating strategic progress, enhancing collaboration, and deepening alignment across all global markets.

Through a series of insightful presentations, regional strategy sessions, and collaborative discussions, the event highlighted the critical role distributors play in supporting Konecranes continued growth and innovation in the industry. From lifting equipment to smart technologies, the emphasis was clear: success is built on strong local partnerships.

The programme also featured engaging social events, valuable networking opportunities, and hands-on demonstrations of Konecranes equipment, culminating in a behind-the-scenes tour of their facilities.

As the authorised Konecranes Lift Trucks distributor for West and Central Africa, and with a partnership that spans more than 20 years, Paterson Simons was honoured to be recognised with the Best Service Award – Middle East & Africa for 2023 to 2024. This recognition underscores our long-standing commitment to delivering exceptional service and support across the West & Central African regions.

This event has further strengthened our alignment with Konecranes vision – and we’re excited to move forward, together!
