February 19, 2013–Skeeter Collins, Link-Belt’s manager of North American Sales, has announced the top five dealers for 2012. These dealers were selected on the basis of overall performance in sales and marketing of Link-Belt cranes. Their ability to sell cranes is not only a reflection of a superior product but also their outstanding customer service, long-term financial stability and solid reputation in the industry.

 

Link-Belt’s top five dealers for 2012 are:

 

1.     Consultants F. Drapeau, Inc., Quebec, Canada

2.     HOLT Crane & Equipment, Houston, Texas

Link-Belt also reports it has appointed Mercovil as its authorized Link-Belt crane distributor for Colombia. Mercóvil was founded in 1954 and is dedicated to customer service, support and training. These three elements have allowed  Mercóvil to gain a dominant market presence in the Colombian construction equipment industry.

 

In November 2012, Mercóvil completed the first phase of a new facility near Medelin, Colombia located in Guarne. The new facility features several state of the art service bays, wash bays, a large parts warehouse, office space and a dedicated facility for employee and customer training. Mercóvil has 120 employees located at five branch locations throughout Colombia, including Medellin, Bogota, Barranquilla, Cali and Yopal.

 

Crane customers in Colombia will benefit greatly from the superior level of service and professionalism that Mercóvil has to offer. We look forward to an expanded market presence, improved parts and product support and the introduction of advanced, new crane models to the Colombia market,” said Rogers.
