German crane dealer Allkran Hellmich has opened a new repair and assembly hall in Riedstadt.

The 3,500m2 hall will be used for mobile crane repair and maintenance, and for fitting HPC 40 uppers supplied by Sennebogen to commercial production chassis from Mercedes, MAN, Volvo or Iveco.

Founder and managing director Rene Hellmich said that his company was bucking the trend of economic downturn in Germany by growing his business, increasing the number of employees from 50 to 62.
