A big thank you to Avesco AG for their excellent cooperation on this exciting project!

The transports were part of Switzerland’s first Cat® Fleet Services Agreement (FSA) – an innovative concept from Caterpillar Inc. that works on a pay-per-use basis: costs are only incurred when the machines are actually in use.

We are delighted to have been part of this pioneering step in the Swiss construction industry.

  • Transports from Langenthal to Baar
  • 30 machines in 11 loads
  • Project partners: Avesco AG / Caterpillar Inc. / Gebrüder Hodel AG
