Jean-Baptiste Dubois, general manager of Axyom, and Alexandre Chanteclair, sales manager of Potain, at Batimat Paris 2019.

Manitowoc Cranes has appointed Axyom, a French construction equipment sales company, as a new distributor of Potain self-erecting cranes in northern France. Based in Normandy, Axyom will expand its offering to customers by incorporating the Potain Igo, Igo T and Hup self-erecting crane ranges.


Jean-Baptiste Dubois, general manager of Axyom, explains: “We have many clients in the construction sector, and the Potain self-erecting range will perfectly complement their needs; we know they will be well-received in the market.”


Axyom is well-established in northern France and has a team of almost 50 people, including a quality after-sales service force with experienced technicians on-hand.


With this new distribution partnership, Manitowoc now has a dynamic network of 13 distributors in France.


Axyom is expecting its first delivery – an Igo M 14 – in the beginning of 2020.
