Specialist material handling company Fuchs launched the new MHL 375 and MHL 310 to the North American market at a recent Dealer Meeting held in Pittsburgh over the summer.
Dealerships from across North America attended the event, where they participated in small group sessions to receive hands-on training with the new Fuchs equipment, discussing best application use while going over key machine features. To close the event, an in-depth sales training was provided for both new and seasoned salesmen to learn sales tactics, selling points, and the current state of the market.
Tim Gerbus, North American Sales Director, Fuchs, explained, "The event was a huge success with comments from dealers stating they appreciated the opportunity to network with their fellow dealers, while gaining a wealth of knowledge about Fuchs and our material handling equipment.
He continues, "Fuchs continues to build momentum in North America, through growing our dealer network and leading with innovation by supplying the marketplace with new products. The MHL 375 satisfies the end user looking for a 145,000 pound machine in the heavy scrap usage arena and the MHL 310 is used for waste recycling and recovery. Both of these machines have the latest updates from Fuchs which helps make the operator more productive."
