BRIDGEVIEW, IL / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2022 / Manitex International, Inc. (NASDAQ: MNTX), a leading international provider of cranes and specialized industrial equipment, today announced that deliveries have commenced to Enel, LLC, a leading electricity provider based in Rome, Italy, for approximately 200 Oil & Steel aerial work platforms (AWP's), under the terms of a contract previously announced in 2021. The equipment will be used to support Enel's power-line maintenance fleet. With 25 years in the industry, Oil & Steel ("O&S") is a dynamic European leader in aerial work platforms and part of the PM Group, which largely constitutes the international operating division of Manitex International.

Concurrently, the Company is announcing the appointment of Giovanni Tacconi to Managing Director, Manitex, Italy. Mr Tacconi, with nearly 20 years in senior sales and marketing and operational roles at PM, assumes the role of General Manager of PM Oil & Steel S.p.A and Valla S.pA effective July 1, 2022. In addition to working with Enel, Tacconi has been a key contributor to this unit's growth that currently represents more than 50% of the company's consolidated backlog, which was last reported at $206 million on May 8, 2022.

Manitex International's Chief Executive Officer Michael Coffey commented, "We continue to make steady progress with our plans to grow the business profitably for our shareholders. The initial delivery of our equipment to Enel, a leading electric utility in Western Europe, represents an important customer milestone for our Italy-based PM Group, which includes the O&S product line. We are thrilled that Enel has chosen our work platforms to join their fleet and we look forward to a long-term relationship.

"Further, Giovanni Tacconi has proven himself to be an exemplary leader of Manitex with European customers and he has been instrumental in all facets of our Italian operations.
