We are very pleased with the agreement, and confident that the complementarity of Multitel’s product with Hybeko’s existing portfolio can be an added value for the three markets and its customers.”

Espen Johannessen, CEO Hybeko Group, added, “We have been looking for a high quality truck mounted platform manufacturer for a long time and finally we have found a supplier that meets all our requirements. Multitel Pagliero will add great value to our customers and strengthen Hybeko´s product portfolio. We are really looking forward to make an impact in the Nordic region with the Multitel brand and Hybeko’s experience in the market.”
