Strategic expansion of major Komatsu Distributor expected to further promote sales of Komatsu equipment in the region
Vilvoorde, March 2022 — Komatsu Europe is pleased to announce that in February 2022 Kuhn Holding, a Komatsu Distributor with its headquarters located in Salzburg, Austria, took over the Romanian company "Marcom".
"Marcom" was founded in 1992 and is located in Bucharest. It currently employs 70 people and generated sales of 41 million euros in the last financial year. Its primary focus is on the sales of Komatsu construction machinery, and it fits perfectly into the Kuhn family’s business profile.
KUHN’s growth continues
Kuhn Holding is an Austrian family company that is divided into the three strategic areas of construction machinery, loading technology and the production of machine tools (Emco).
Kuhn's construction machinery division has been exclusively and successfully selling Komatsu construction machinery for decades in Austria, southern Germany, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Switzerland and Croatia.
“We are pleased about this further expansion of our company. With “Marcom”, we have taken over a successful company that will drive our healthy growth even further. In addition, the expansion in Romania is an important step in internationalization,” say Andreas and Stefan Kuhn.
With “Marcom”, Kuhn Holding, which previously employed 1,600 persons, now grows by another 70 employees.
