Commenting on the Rabern Rental divesture, Dean Barley, president and CEO of Tadano America Corporation, Tadano Mantis and Tadano Manitex, said: \u201cTadano\u2019s core expertise is designing, manufacturing and supporting the most dependable lifting and access equipment, and the Rabern Rentals sale reflects our commitment to staying true to that focus. Rental operations require a different business model and priorities. Under Sunbelt Rentals ownership, Rabern Rentals will have the flexibility and focus necessary to continue growing its rental business and better serve customers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The move reinforces Tadano\u2019s role as a dedicated partner to rental companies everywhere, ensuring that Tadano is fully invested in supporting its customers, rather than competing with them, and delivering the best overall value.
