Kobelco Construction Machinery Europe – KCME – has added emphasis to its Slovenian operations with the appointment of its new dealer Kotech.

The dealer, which is based in Slovenia, will accommodate the growing demand for construction equipment in the country, said Kobelco.

Kotech specialises in the sale and service of compact and heavy crawler excavators and is a key player in Slovenia’s earthmoving, demolition, quarrying and forestry industries. The dealer offers a full service experience including rental, repair and maintenance of excavators, and is said to pride itself on its fast service response time and valued customer support via replacement parts.

Kobelco said the team was made up of young, dynamic and experienced staff who benefitted from ongoing training in order to provide the best possible customer service.

The company recently entered the Italian market with four news dealers, and expanded its dealership network in Germany.

Jozica Saksida, Kotech CEO, said, “When it comes to crawler excavators, Kobelco is a prestigious and quality brand name with a proven track record across the construction and other industries.

“For this reason, we’re proud to be associated with Kobelco Construction Machinery and our customers really like the brand, too. We recently sold a SK85MSR to Stopar PGM and are looking forward to making even more sales.”

Meanwhile, Makoto Kato, managing director, KCME, said, “We are very excited to be working with Kotech.

“As well as being a well-respected supplier of construction equipment to Slovenia and its surrounding territories, the dealership’s foundation is built on providing a quality service to its customers – a quality that fits very well with Kobelco’s philosophy.”
