As part of the succession plan, Libero has now decided to transfer business activities to Liebherr-Baumaschinen Vertriebs- und Service GmbH and Liebherr-Mietpartner GmbH. Burkhard Vorwerk wishes to thank his staff and Liebherr for the many decades of loyalty and close cooperation.

Working with known and established contacts, Liebherr-Baumaschinen Vertriebs- und Service GmbH and Liebherr-Mietpartner GmbH have stated that they will be a reliable and effective partner to all existing and potential customers.
