Leguan Lifts strengthens partnership in France
Leguan Lifts, the Finnish manufacturer of spider lifts, has reinforced its presence in the French market by strengthening its partnership with local distributor FSI Franskan, underscoring Leguan Lifts’ long-term commitment to France.
Having worked closely with FSI Franskan for several years, Leguan Lifts is now investing additional resources to support the distributor with expanded training, marketing initiatives and after-sales service infrastructure. As part of this strengthened collaboration, FSI Franskan now also serves as the official spare parts and service provider for Leguan Lifts in France, ensuring professional support and quick access to original Leguan components nationwide.
As Leguan’s official French distributor, FSI Franskan has direct factory support, including comprehensive training programs for sales and service personnel. These initiatives will ensure that end-users and key accounts across the country experience the full value of being part of the Leguan family.
“Our collaboration with FSI Franskan has proven its value over time,” said Jori Mylläri, VP of Sales and Marketing at Leguan Lifts. “By investing further in this partnership, we can ensure French customers get the best after-sales support and access to our versatile portfolio.
“FSI Franskan understands our machines and shares our commitment to strong customer relationships. We’re excited to continue growing together.”
FSI Franskan has already served as Leguan’s official spare parts and service provider in France, but its role is now expanding significantly. In addition to its established presence in the tree care and arborist markets, FSI Franskan will begin supporting Leguan customers across the construction, rental, and property maintenance sectors – markets previously served by another importer. Customers in these additional segments will now benefit from centralized service coordination, faster spare parts delivery, and expert technical assistance
“We’re proud to extend our responsibility as Leguan’s official service and spare parts provider in France,” said Anthony Duheron from FSI Franskan. “With our skilled technicians, in-depth product knowledge, and swift logistics network, we are well positioned to support Leguan’s growing customer base nationwide.”
With increasing demand for all-terrain capable aerial work platforms in urban and rural job sites, Leguan spider lifts – known for durability, uniform fleet design, intuitive
controls, and rough terrain capability – are increasingly seen as suitable solutions. The varied working environments in France, particularly in sectors like tree care, property maintenance, rentals, and telecommunications, make it a key market for continued growth.
“France is a priority market for us,” added Mylläri. “We see huge strong potential in France especially in the rental and tree care industries. Our uniform fleet simplifies operator training and streamlines after-sales processes, delivering real value to our customers.”
