The leading services provider for design, measurement and visualization solutions, Hexagon AB has announced its acquisition of all the shares in MANFRA, the distributor of Leica Geosystems based in Brazil.
MANFRA, aside from the Leica Geosystems partnership, is also the developer of the Posicao topography software for surveying. MANFRA, after its establishment back in 1978 in Curitiba, Brazil, is the primary service provider for the survey, engineering, construction, agricultural and mining industries in the Southern and Western states of Brazil.
According to Hexagon President and CEO Ola Rollen,"MANFRA's strong installed base in the Brazilian territory and expanded footprint across the region strengthens our penetration in this emerging market. In addition to increased distribution capabilities in the whole of South America, we look forward to the unique application knowledge and products the MANFRA acquisition brings to the Hexagon family. Both will help add value to our solutions and better serve the evolving needs of the local customer base."
