any given time in their four warehouses on the West, Gulf and East
coasts of USA.
"We are proud to expand the
business relationship with Buffers USA that we already have enjoyed for
21 years with the Allset line of products. With Buffers profound product
knowledge and geographical footprint we will additionally increase the
service level to our customers in the territory" said Marcus Näslund,
Cargotec's Business Development Manager, Lashings.
"We
are delighted to expand our territory for the MacGregor and Allset
brands since they are well-known and respected names in the industry and
the MacGregor brand with Cargotec behind it, continues to have the
largest market share of lashing for new ships that will require top
level aftermarket service from well stocked warehouses" said John Hove,
President of Buffers USA from their Jacksonville, FL headquarters.
The expanded territory starts on 1 July, so customers should direct all enquiries to Buffers from that date onwards."
