Manitou’s Luc Midy, plant manager of the company’s Laille facility, and Frank Rocher, operations director for the Telehandlers Production Unit, presented the award to Arnaud Raffegeau, OEM sales manager for Manuli Hydraulics France during a conference attended by 250 invited representatives from Manitou’s supplier base of some 1600 companies.

As an example of supplier best practice, Raffegeau presented to the conference on the partnership between Manuli Hydraulics and Manitou and the long-term agreement that exists between the organisations to ensure mutual co-operation.

On winning the Best Supply performance award Manuli Hydraulics was particularly recognised for outstanding performance with regard to on-time deliveries.
