Lovely Austria!

Travelling around Austria it is easy to fall in love with this stunningly beautiful country.  It has the most amazing views mainly due to the Alps of course but the country is so green and well taken care off. The houses all over the country side are nicely taking care of and the flower arrangements at each house are fantastic. We have been visiting the Salzburg area during our Austrian tour. If you have never been to this nice looking country you need to pay it a visit, you will not regret it.

Tour of Austria / Germany

During four days our marketing manager, CEO and Chief designer are travelling around the Austrian and Southern parts of the German market, partly to meet several of our dealers but also to discuss potential businesses with new dealers on the Austrian market.

Yesterday we had a nice day together with our Austrian dealer Holzknecht. Holzknecht we informed you about last week when they added a nice order for twenty Z cranes. Most things were discussed and we had a nice time taking the impressive factory tour. We ended the stay with a llovely lunch at Holzknechts own Gasthof, in a stunningly beautiful part of Austria. We thank you for making us feel so welcome and welcome you all to Estonia in the autumn!

SALTEX SHOW,WINDSOR UK

FORS MW take on a royal feel in the first week of September (3 – 5 September) as we take part in the Annual Saltex show at Royal Windsor Race Course a show under the under the Heathrow flight path in simple terms so to speak.

The show is aimed at small scale machines you would find in Parks, Golf courses and such like. With this in mind it will be the smaller machines we will show including a BIGAB 8-12. It’s the first time for nearly 5 years we have done an exhibition in UK with BIGAB, mainly due to the financial situation in the country, but since we see a market change the last couple of months we hope to see good results.

We will be on stand D90 in the demo area so please, if your there call in and see us, or if you flying out of Heathrow, look down you may spot a BIGAB!

Visible trademarks!

So we finally got our stylish banners with our three market leading brands up on the assembly hall at the factory in Saue, Estonia. Really nice and with great visibility towards one of Estonia’s busiest roads. The one towards Pärnu/Haapsalu.

Austria developing nicely!

Fors MW has been on the Austrian market for several years, mainly through FARMA forest trailers but over the years there have also been some BIGAB hook lift systems deals. This summer Fors MW received a nice order for 20 cranes Z's 6.6 from company F: a Holzknecht in Austria. The order came after them during spring purchasing a Z crane for testing and after evaluation came the order.

F: a Holzknecht manufactures large tractor mounted winches for forestry. They also have their own forest trailer where our Z crane proved to be a perfect fit. For more info visit their website at www.holzknecht.at

The world is moving in the right direction!

This summer we have good indications that the market is moving in the right direction from different parts of the world. We have a large and growing interest in our products. BIGAB hook lift systems are selling more and more overseas. We also see a lot of orders coming in from countries far away, such as Japan. A market that had a good start is the Canadian market. We have for many years been selling products to Canada but never in large quantities. Here we see a change. First in the number of active dealers, those who wish to become but also in the number of orders and deliveries. A really nice development!

Exhibition in Austria

In June FARMA/BIGAB were represented at the Austrian show Inter – Agrar through both company Land – und Forsttechniek and company Holzknecht. The reports after the show speaks about a great interest for the FARMA Generation 2 trailer CT 7,0 – 10 presented by Land – und Forsttechniek as well as the BIGAB Z crane 6,6 presented by Holzknecht an interest that has paid off in some really nice orders from Austrian dealers. We will tell more about that next week! 

Back in business!

So after a long but fantastic summer holiday we are all back in business again for an exacting autumn. We have several nice and interesting things to look forward to. We will attend shows in UK, Finland, Sweden and Germany (Agritechnica). During the summer we have seen a huge interest for our BIGAB Generation 2 trailer. That has been shown both in regards of interest and actual orders. The order book is fully booked for the coming months. Now will work on promoting the trailer is the best way possible through marketing material and advertising all over Europe. FARMA Generation2 is also filling the order stock and with forest season around the corner we all feel excited for that.

So as you see, here at Fors MW we take pride in our market leading role, we never lay to rest. Follow our journey here!
