Peter Beaumont has been appointed managing director of Bolzoni Auramo Australia Pty Ltd, replacing Gary Jackison, who has resigned.

Bolzoni Auramo Australia distributes Bolzoni Auramo forklift attachments, Lift-Tek Elecar masts and Elme spreaders in the states of New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania.

Mr Beaumont has more than 25 years' experience in manufacturing and distributing forklift attachments. He is also managing director of Adelaide-based Eurolift Pty Ltd, which distributes Bolzoni Auramo, Lift-Tek Elecar and Elme products in South Australia, Western Australia, Queensland and the Northern Territory, which means he now manages distribution of those products throughout Australia.

"Bolzoni is a shareholder in both Bolzoni Auramo Australia and Eurolift. Therefore the synergy created by the dual appointment will be beneficial to the company and our customers," Mr Beaumont said.
