NEWNAN, Ga. (Oct. 26, 2021) — As of October 1, Hitachi Construction Machinery Loaders America is now Hitachi Construction Machinery Americas Inc.

The implementation of the company name change corresponds with Hitachi Construction Machinery’s plans to expand the functions and authority of Hitachi Construction Machinery Loaders America, Inc. throughout the entire North, Central and South American region, and to develop a new promotion structure with group companies in the region. Such efforts are aimed at establishing an independent network of construction machinery sales and parts and services business operations for the entire North, Central and South American region.

With the dissolution of the joint venture relationship between the Hitachi Construction Machinery Group and US-based Deere & Company starting in March 2022, Hitachi Construction Machinery aims to independently deploy the latest products, technologies and services across the entire North, Central and South American region.

Accordingly, Hitachi Construction Machinery will conduct a thorough review of the organizational structure of Hitachi Construction Machinery Loaders America, Inc., which has been in charge of the manufacturing and sales of Hitachi branded wheel loaders. The aim of such a review is to strengthen the position of the company as the regional headquarters handling all Hitachi Construction Machinery products, including wheel loaders, compact and construction-sized hydraulic excavators, ultra-large mining excavators and mining dump trucks.
