The symbiotic alliance has now stretched its wings, representing Develon in the picturesque landscapes of Mauritius and Madagascar through Develon Korea’s export arm.
DMP’s portfolio in Réunion is a testament to its prowess, showcasing illustrious brands like Bobcat. With an alliance spanning over four decades, DMP proudly stands as Bobcat’s most seasoned dealer in France and its overseas domains.
Ensuring impeccable service, DMP boasts an advanced workshop and a robust fleet of over 30 service vehicles, dedicated to the seamless operation of more than 3000 pieces of equipment gracing the island.
In summary, as Develon embarks on this new chapter, the legacy and prowess of the likes of DMP and MIM guarantee that the future of construction in these islands is in capable hands.
