Our Volvo 3P visitors are part of the "Engineering Dept. Standardization" recently set up by the new VOLVO Group Organization (Renault Truck/RVI, Volvo Truck and Mack Truck) ; they explained that they are hoping to become an interface between : - the Engineers of the worldwide Volvo Group - the different Commercial Requests - the different suppliers this will enable them to propose the most suitable solution for the vehicle. Consequently, they have a real decision-making power. Throughout this "Innovation Day", the greatest wish of the A. Raymond Group has been to strengthen its already strong relationship with the VOLVO Group. We would like to highlight that we have been working with RVI since 1967 from Grenoble and with Volvo Sweden for many years from Lörrach !!! Such an event has been has been possible thanks to the participation of promoters and people from both sides, showing remarkable determination and hard work, showing as always a strong "Group Attitude".
