RIKON Makes Its Debut in Africa with First Major Contract
The beginning of 2026 marks a strategic milestone for RIKON, as the company secures its first major contract on the African continent. The firm, renowned for its expertise in transporting heavy and complex equipment, has won an international tender for the transport of a Double Jib Level Luffing crane, of German production, a flagship product in its manufacturing portfolio.
The crane will be transported fully assembled from the port of Nador to the port of Safi in Morocco—a logistically challenging operation that demands specialized expertise, meticulous planning, and proven execution capabilities.
The contract was awarded by Marsa Maroc, the leading port operator in the Kingdom, highlighting the confidence placed in RIKON to successfully execute a high-stakes project. The company’s proven track record in heavy-lift crane transport, including recent successful deliveries to Turkey, served as a key reference, demonstrating its reliability and operational excellence.
For RIKON, this project marks its first venture into Africa and a powerful demonstration of its logistics capabilities. Successfully delivering this crane will provide tangible proof of its expertise, open doors to future projects, and reinforce its position as a trusted partner for complex heavy-lift machinery solutions across the continent.
With this milestone, RIKON signals that Africa is now a strategic priority in its global expansion and that the continent can rely on capable partners to meet even the most demanding logistical challenges.
