SkyJacks has been appointed as the exclusive dealer for Jekko products in South Africa.The company’s extensive portfolio includes suspended access platforms, aerial work platforms, telehandlers, and construction hoists, backed by a commitment to excellence in product quality and customer service.
The partnership between Jekko and SkyJacks signifies a shared dedication to delivering reliable and efficient lifting solutions to customers across various industries, including construction, mining, and industrial maintenance. By joining forces, Jekko and SkyJacks aim to meet the evolving needs of the South African market and enhance productivity and safety in challenging working environments.
“With Alistair and his team, we have known each other for many years.” says Alberto Franceschini, Sales & Marketing Director at Jekko. “They visited us already seven years ago, but at that time Jekko’s size, organization, machinery, and quality were not up to the level of a major player like SkyJacks in South Africa.
Right timing
“It is personally satisfying to see that, after all this time, SkyJacks has witnessed the incredible growth of Jekko on the international markets, in its organisation, in products, and in quality, which is why it was finally easy to choose to distribute for us.
Furthermore, it’s impressive to witness that more and more dealers are combining a brand of telehandlers and a brand of mini cranes in their catalogues. The two products are remarkably complementary, not in competition, providing the dealer with an extremely versatile, innovative, and comprehensive product package. I am greatly satisfied with this trend.”
45 Years
SkyJacks Managing Director Alistair Bennett comments, “Over the last 45 years, SkyJacks has been trusted to provide working at height and material handling solutions in some of Southern Africa’s most challenging working environments. Initially, our focus was on suspended access platforms and aerial work platforms. As the company evolved, our offerings grew to include telehandlers and construction hoists.
“Continuing to innovate, we believe that adding Jekko mini cranes to our offering is a natural progression that will allow us to meet the changing demands of the construction, mining, and industrial maintenance sectors in Southern Africa.”
