WACKER Neuson South Africa (Pty) Ltd., a subsidiary of the global Wacker Neuson Group, has been appointed as the authorised dealer for the Italian machine attachment specialist, Cangini Benne.
Wacker Neuson customers can now benefit from faster, local access to Cangini products, product expertise, and aftermarket care.
Cangini Benne was established in Italy in the 1980s and the brand has been present in Southern Africa for approximately ten years. The company is globally renowned for the design and production of one of the widest attachment portfolios on the market which include standard and hydraulic work tools for excavators, skid-steer loaders, wheel loaders, and telehandlers.
“We are extremely excited to be a distributor for Cangini Benne,” says Dennis Vietze, Managing Director for Wacker Neuson Sub-Saharan Africa. “Both companies are rated high on product quality and service excellence by customers worldwide. Collaboration with like-minded partners is an important part of our business strategy in a bid to provide turnkey solutions to our customers. Moreover, through this partnership, we are able to offer our customers an impressively wide range of attachments, transforming our machines into fully-fledged tool carriers for handling multiple agricultural and construction applications. We are now ideally positioned to provide end-to-end customer solutions,” stresses Dennis who lauds the variety, quality, robustness, reliability, and versatility of the Cangini product range.
“Our association developed slowly but steadily over the years,” says Antonio Cannaò, International Sales Director for Cangini Benne. “In addition to the geographical distance between the two companies, the recent Covid pandemic, with its related lockdowns and travel restrictions, further impeded our plans. However, both parties acknowledged that we could continue to count on each other’s full commitment. Our collaboration finally took huge strides forward this year as we officially welcome Wacker Neuson to the Cangini Benne dealership stable.”
The agreement gives Wacker Neuson access to the full Cangini range, with Cangini excavator buckets, hydraulic brooms, and mulchers being particularly popular with Wacker Neuson customers because of their high quality. Antonio adds that they see great potential in the Southern African region for hydraulic tools for both excavators and front-mounted machines such as tilting hitches, selector grabs, mulchers, concrete mixer buckets, different types of sweepers and sweeper buckets as well as a unique laser-guided dozer blade. He points out that these will be the perfect match for Wacker Neuson’s skid steer loaders and wheel loaders for very accurate and fast grading.
