Finnish crane manufacturer Konecranes Oyj has secured a new order from the Georgia Ports Authority (GPA) in the United States for two Ship-to-Shore (STS) container cranes. The cranes will be delivered to GPA's Garden City Terminal in Savannah, Georgia.
This latest order follows a previous contract in 2023, where Konecranes supplied GPA with four STS cranes and eight Rubber-Tyred Gantry (RTG) cranes. The value of the new order has not been disclosed, but it will be included in Konecranes' orders received for the second quarter of 2024.
