Deal was closed in partnership with Volvo

Marcopolo reinforces its presence on the African continent and, in partnership with Volvo, supplies 91 new buses to Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Burkina Faso and Ghana. The vehicles, of the Paradiso 1200, Viaggio 1050 and Torino models, were shipped this October and delivery should take place in November.

“Despite the pandemic, Marcopolo’s sales on the African continent were maintained and represent an important part of the company’s results. In addition to traditional customers, the company also gained new ones during this period”, highlights Gustavo Marramarco, Marcopolo’s commercial operations consultant responsible for serving the northern region of the African continent.

Marcopolo has a very strong and positive image on the African continent. The company is recognized for the robustness, quality and low maintenance of its products as well as for its superior after-sales service and technical assistance.

In the First Half of this year, Marcopolo exported 967 units from Brazilian factories, with the main destinations being African and South American countries, with an emphasis on the Chilean market.
