Komatsu sends relief aid to Turkey and Syria
03 March 2023
IN COOPERATION with its local distributor Marubeni Da ğıtım ve Servis A.Ş., Komatsu will lend construction equipment needed for relief efforts to the affected areas free of charge and dispatch operators and service mechanics to assist the relief efforts.
The value of the aid is equivalent to JPY20m (£122,348). Komatsu will additionally donate JPY10m (£61,168) through the Japanese Red Cross Society. Since establishing an office in Turkey in 1975, Komatsu has been engaging its locally anchored business in Turkey, a major market in the Middle East region. Komatsu will continue to provide material assistance to help the affected areas recover as quickly as possible while monitoring the conditions with MDS.
"Komatsu expresses its deepest condolences to those who lost their lives in the recent earthquake that occurred in southeastern Turkey. Komatsu also extends its deepest sympathies to all those affected by the earthquake," the company said in a statement.
