ncarol.com/10284642

TOKYO, Japan - ncarol.com -- Hitachi Construction Machinery Co., Ltd. ("Hitachi Construction Machinery") decided at a Board of Directors meeting held today that it will establish Hitachi Construction Machinery Latin America SpA ("Hitachi Construction Machinery Latin America") in the Republic of Chile ("Chile") on April 1, 2025, to oversee and expand it's business in Latin America. The establishment of Hitachi Construction Machinery Latin America will strengthen the company's focus from new machinery sales to the localization of parts and service support in Latin America to rapidly respond to the needs of dealers and customers.

With the dissolution of the joint venture with Deere & Company, the Hitachi Construction Machinery Group has been independently expanding the sales of new construction machinery and the provision of parts and services in the North and Latin American regions since March 2022. Until now, the Group has primarily focused its efforts on launching and expanding its sales and service system in North America and developed a dealer network and parts warehouses.

Currently, Hitachi Construction Machinery Americas Inc. (headquarters: Newnan, Georgia, USA; "Hitachi Construction Machinery Americas") is responsible for the Latin American region along with North America. Due to differences in culture, language, and business practices between North America and Latin America, it was decided that a regional headquarters would be established in the region with Chile serving as the headquarters for Latin America to rapidly respond to the needs of regional dealers and customers. Chile is the largest market in Latin America for mining dump trucks, a segment in which Hitachi Construction Machinery is working to expand sales, and close communication with customers is expected due to the concentration of headquarters for major mining companies. In addition, agreements for compact and construction products have been signed with dealers in Chile, Co-operative Republic of Guyana, Dominican Republic, Republic of Colombia, and Republic of Suriname. First, the regional headquarters for Latin America will be established in Chile followed by the gradual development of a sales and service network including Brazil, which is the Group's largest market for construction products.
