2010 was a year of transition following the 2009
crisis. It was used to put in place the strategy
deployed earlier this year at the « Manitou
Next! » international convention and prepare
the Group to enter a new growth cycle: launch
of new products, industrial reorganization,
partnerships, supplier support, new production
methods, sales and marketing synergies...
There has been a wide range of progress
with as much promise for the future. As we enter
a new cycle, introduced at the « Manitou Up! »
convention, the outlook is encouraging,
but rich in challenges in an environment
which remains fragile.
