Elaut USA, the American arm of the big Belgian cranes and pushers specialist company, has recruited Jim Chapman to its sales team.

Chapman joins Elaut USA

Said Anthony Maniscalco, executive vice president: “Jim has in-depth knowledge of crane machines and their operation.” He is being welcomed to the Florida-based company from June 24.

Elaut is still consolidating its operations into its new Florida home, with its move from New Jersey but notes that sales of cranes, pushers and ticket redemption games remain strong for its own products. Tony Gianaris, COO, said: “Adding a sales professional such as Jim will ensure that all product information is properly disseminated to the field promptly.”

Elaut’s new premises, covering 78,000sq.ft at Lake Worth Beach, Florida, is in the final stages of completion and full occupancy is expected next month.
