Konecranes has closed its acquisition of Rotterdam-based Peinemann Port Services BV and Peinemann Container Handling BV after receiving approval for the transaction from the Dutch competition authority.
Peinemann is a significant port services provider in the Netherlands with a wide customer base, and it has long-term maintenance relationships with several of Konecranes’ key customers.
Peinemann Container Handling BV has been a Konecranes Lift Trucks distributor in the Netherlands since 2009 and been in the sales, rental and service business of lift trucks in the Rotterdam area since 1954. The planned acquisition will have no impact on Konecranes’ current Lift Trucks distributor model outside of the Netherlands.
