Customers on the Indian Ocean islands of Réunion and Mayotte had their first opportunity to see products from Develon, previously known as Doosan Construction Equipment, at successful XTREM PRO events in September. The XTREM PRO events were organised in Réunion and Mayotte, respectively, by dealers DMP and MIM (Potier Group), the leaders in the construction and materials handling market in the Indian Ocean.

Held since 2000, the XTREM PRO events are designed for professionals in the construction and public works sector and this year’s editions were a great success, with over 1200 visitors.
