Keith Clarke, Haulotte Australia general manager, explains how the relationship between the two companies continues to flourish even in the hard times.

He said, “Seeing this relationship develop over the last few years has been very rewarding, what started as an initial order, has now grown to include a majority of our machines for Coates Hire to distribute amongst their different locations.”

The machine mix for these orders is varied and includes Optimum 8 scissor lifts, rough terrain scissors, as well as both telescopic and articulating booms from 16 to 43m.

“They have witnessed first hand the innovations and safety benefits that Haulotte machines have to offer and have now grown their fleet to include over 1000 Haulotte machines. Together we work on service and support for the hire industry across Australia” adds Clarke.
