MACORP, on Thursday, announced its new partnership with Kalmar having been certified as the authorised dealer for the material handling equipment brand in Guyana, adding another globally trusted brand to its growing portfolio.

Through this partnership, MACORP will supply Kalmar equipment locally, backed by full support services including parts, maintenance, and operator training, release said, adding that the goal is to ensure customers not only get the right machines, but also the support they need to keep them running efficiently.

“Kalmar is a strong and trusted name in the cargo handling sector, and we’re happy to bring that to our customers here in Guyana as we continue to grow our offering.

“The move comes as MACORP prepares to transition into its new multimillion-dollar facility at Covent Garden, expanding its ability to serve customers across the country,” the release said.

Further, it said the company has already seen early momentum, with its first Kalmar reach stacker and forklift recently delivered to a customer. The handover included certificates for the operators who were trained as part of the services provided by MACORP to ensure the equipment is used safely and effectively.

President and General Manager, German Consuegra, stated, “We remain committed to supporting Guyana’s development by ensuring our customers have reliable access to the equipment and technical support they require. This initiative further demonstrates our capabilities and the breadth of our role as a trusted partner.”

The release added that MACORP is the authorised Caterpillar dealer in Guyana, providing heavy equipment, energy, marine and agricultural solutions in support of the country’s key industries for over 30 years.

Throughout this period, the company has also partnered with leading international brands including SEM, a Caterpillar Brand, CaseIH, Towmotor, Carmix and most recently Kalmar, to meet the evolving demands of the Guyanese market.
