Manitex International, a manufacturer of boom truck cranes, rough terrain forklifts, container handling equipment and mission-oriented vehicles, said this week it is expanding its distribution agreement with Cropac Equipment, a mobile crane dealer serving customers throughout North America since 1977, and a key Manitex distributor since 1988, to include Alberta and Saskatchewan provinces in Canada.

Cropac recently opened a new branch in Nisku, Alberta. Cropac has a particularly strong presence in the energy sector.
