Leguan Lifts, the Finnish manufacturer of market defining spider lifts, has reinforced its presence in the French market by strengthening its partnership with local distributor FSI Franskan. This strategic move underscores Leguan Lifts’ long-term commitment to France, one of Europe’s most competitive and dynamic access equipment markets.
Having worked closely with FSI Franskan for several years, Leguan Lifts is now investing additional resources to support the distributor with expanded training, marketing initiatives, and after-sales service infrastructure. As part of this strengthened collaboration, FSI Franskan now also serves as the official spare parts and service provider for Leguan Lifts in France, ensuring professional support and quick access to original Leguan components nationwide.

Enhanced Customer Support through Training
FSI Franskan, with four locations covering all of France, has earned a strong reputation for technical expertise and reliable service. As Leguan’s official French distributor, FSI Franskan benefits from direct factory support, including comprehensive training programs for sales and service personnel. These initiatives will ensure that end-users and key accounts across the country experience the full value of being part of the Leguan family.
”Our collaboration with FSI Franskan has proven its value over time,” said Jori Mylläri, VP of Sales and Marketing at Leguan Lifts. “By investing further in this partnership, we can ensure French customers get the best after-sales support and access to our versatile portfolio. FSI Franskan understands our machines and shares our commitment to strong customer relationships. We’re excited to continue growing together.”

Stronger Service and Spare Parts Network
FSI Franskan has already served as Leguan’s official spare parts and service provider in France, but its role is now expanding significantly. In addition to its established presence in the tree care and arborist markets, FSI Franskan will begin supporting Leguan customers across the construction, rental, and property maintenance sectors—markets previously served by another importer.
This expanded responsibility ensures a more unified and efficient support structure for Leguan owners in France. Customers in these additional segments will now benefit from centralized service coordination, faster spare parts delivery, and expert technical assistance, all backed by Leguan’s high standards and FSI Franskan’s proven capabilities.
“We’re proud to extend our responsibility as Leguan’s official service and spare parts provider in France,” said Anthony Duheron from FSI Franskan. “With our skilled technicians,
in-depth product knowledge, and swift logistics network, we are well positioned to support Leguan’s growing customer base nationwide.”
Meeting Growing Demand in France
With increasing demand for all-terrain aerial work platforms in urban and rural job sites, Leguan spider lifts—renowned for their durability, uniform fleet design, intuitive controls, and rough terrain capability—are increasingly seen as ideal solutions. The varied working environments in France, particularly in sectors like tree care, property maintenance, rentals, and telecommunications, make it a key market for continued growth.
Looking Ahead
With a sharpened focus on the French market, Leguan Lifts continues to expand the existing customer base together with FSI Franskan.
“France is a priority market for us,” added Mylläri. “We see strong potential in France especially on the rental and tree care industries. Our uniform fleet simplifies operator training and streamlines after-sales processes, delivering real value to our customers.”
