Production sites
Supplying world-leading products brings responsibility. That's why at Alo we are very careful to maintain control over the entire production chain, from material supply to front loaders and implements ready to deliver. It is also why we have decentralised production to ensure every item in our range is produced under specialised production management. This ensures quality is optimised in every detail as well as in the finished product.
Our four production sites produces front loaders and implements with the latest technique. The plants are located in:
- Brännland, Sweden
- Matha, France
- Ningbo, China
- Greenville, USA
Strategic Sourcing
The Strategic Sourcing department’s mission is to secure supply of high quality components or products, delivered in time at lowest possible cost to our production units globally.

With strategic plans and analysis of the global market development, we always strive to find new opportunities for Alo to reduce cost and develop our supplier relationships in the right direction.
