COMPANY NEWS<br />
#1 Southwest France (week 14)<br />
What is a roadshow?<br />
The first roadshow, hosted in<br />
Southwest France in the early<br />
days of April was a good start<br />
to the roadshow calendar as<br />
we visited several customers.<br />
The Renault Maxity mounted<br />
Versalift VTX-240 with its<br />
unique dual boom design was<br />
the clear center of attention<br />
on most visits as several<br />
customers expressed interest<br />
in the unique applications<br />
that is possible with the 3.5 t<br />
“up and over” unit.<br />
During a roadshow, we<br />
visit customers on their<br />
own turf with a caravan<br />
of several Versalift access<br />
platform vehicles. We<br />
find the roadshow to<br />
be a great supplement<br />
to tradeshows and<br />
exhibitions.<br />
#2 Northwest France (week 22)<br />
For the second leg of the<br />
roadshow in late May in<br />
Northwest France, the weather<br />
had improved considerably.<br />
A highlight of the tour was<br />
the stop at our local retailer<br />
in Normandy, Normandie<br />
Intervention, that included a<br />
barbeque with local specialties.<br />
The new addition to the<br />
roadshow caravan, the Fiat<br />
Doblo mounted 9 metre LT-23<br />
got a lot of attention as did<br />
the popular 14 metre ETL-38<br />
on a Renault Master van with<br />
the new patent pending 180°<br />
