Not the Mitsubishi You Think You Know: Smarter, Safer Lifting Starts Here
When most people hear “Mitsubishi,” they think cars, TVs, or maybe an AC unit keeping their living room comfortable. What they usually do not picture is a trusted partner behind some of the toughest crane and hoist applications in North America. And honestly, we get it. The crane world has been dominated by the same handful of control brands for decades. But that is exactly why now is the perfect time to reintroduce ourselves
The star of the north
Minnesota has many advantages it can leverage to boost its economic development, but it needs to create a more competitive business environment if it is to attract new investment. Jim Banks looks at the opportunities and the challenges that lie ahead, and how the crane and hoist industry could benefit.
