March 20, 2009 – Manitowoc, Manitowoc, Wis., recently appointed two new Potain dealers in the United States. Select Equipment in Richmond Va., and Allstate Crane Rental Co., Charleston, S.C., are now authorized to sell the Potain line of self-erecting cranes.

Brad Talley, owner of Select Equipment, said he was excited to receive the authorization. “I have been fascinated with the Potain self-erecting cranes since I first learned about them,” he said. “I am really glad that I will now be able to offer this fantastic product to my customers. I see a great potential for self-erecting cranes in the southern Virginia area.”
