The Interview:
OM offensive with new C. I.
OM Carrelli Elevatori Spa is an Italian
based manufacturer of forklift trucks and warehouse equipment
with a 55 years long tradition. We have spoken with Mr.
Francesco Chinaglia, Sales and Marketing Director of the OM
Group about the new global player OM.
OM has undergone important changes in the
last past years, what are the results of this transformations?
F. Chinaglia: The
last past years have been very important ones for OM indeed.
One of the most important changes was the seperation of the
divisional Material Handling part from the Linde Group and the
creation of the Kion Group, consisting of Linde, Still and OM.
When OM Carrelli Elevatori S.p.A became, as an independent
brand, a part of the Linde Group, it seemed that OM would be
only a "regional player" focusing on European
markets. After the complete renewal of the manufacturing
facilities and our products range, in 2005 the group management
decided that OM conquer new markets in Eastern Europe, the
Middle East, North Africa and the Far East. In 2004 for example
we numbered only 11 dealers in Eastern Europe countries, now we
have three times more and during the last two years the number
of sold units increased by 200%.
