Dutch international rental company Boels has placed a €24 million order with JCB for 340 new machines, including telehandlers and mini excavators.
The units will be delivered to Boels locations in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Slovakia, Austria and Italy.
Boels has been a JCB customer for some time, having placed orders for around 1,600 machines in recent years.
Yvette Henshall-Bell, JCB group managing director global key accounts said: “We are delighted to secure this major order from one of Europe’s leading hire companies. We have worked closely with Boels for many years and it’s testament to the quality of our range of Loadalls and excavators as well as the world class service back up that we’ve secured this valuable business.
Boels director of fleet operation, Guy Cremer added: "Boels is one of the largest rental companies in Europe and we continue to grow year on year by increasing our fleet with the best equipment available. Our decision to buy JCB was based on the quality and efficiency of the product as well as the excellent aftermarket support we receive from JCB throughout Europe. Boels and JCB are both family businesses sharing many common values and I am glad that our long standing partnership continues."
