This will include entry into several new machine categories in North America. Over the next two years, Hitachi's equipment lineup will grow to include wheeled excavators, articulated dump trucks, and compact track loaders under the new LANDCROS brand.
Hitachi Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. has also signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with Yanmar Holdings Co., Ltd. to explore collaboration in the compact construction equipment business.
The construction equipment industry is rapidly changing, and OEMs must keep up with diverse customer needs, accelerated technological innovation, and intense global competition.
In the competitive compact equipment sector, sustainable growth is expected to require new approaches outside the traditional business framework, such as collaboration between full-line manufacturers and companies specializing in compact equipment.
The companies will maintain their respective brand identities throughout the collaboration, and both companies will continue to serve customers through their independent dealer networks.
