The project for a future multimodal platform at the port of Sète (Hérault) is moving forward: the European Commission has authorised a subsidy of €3 million.
The Alsace-based group, which has traditionally exported its car carriers, intends to refine its strategy for international sales of its piggyback and electric shuttle products.
One of the company's flagship products, the Cristal modular electric shuttle, has been selected to take part in the fourth edition of the Fabriqué en France exhibition, to be held on October 26 and 27.
Based in Duppigheim and Hangenbieten in the Bas-Rhin, Lohr Industrie (2,000 employees worldwide) is to benefit from 30 months' support from Business France to help it export its products internationally.
