Liebherr in Miami, products and capabilities

Liebherr has been serving the Miami region since the early 2000s. In 2013, the company made a multi-million-dollar investment building the Liebherr-Miami facility based in Hialeah Gardens.

Liebherr‘s 56,000 ft² state-of-the-art Miami facility has flourished as the main hub for sales and service for the company’s maritime cranes and tower cranes product segments, as well as refrigerators and freezers for residential and commercial applications. This location has continually played a pivotal role in Liebherr’s growth strategy in the US and solidifies the company’s position as a prominent player in the industry.

Offerings for the maritime crane segment include port equipment with mobile harbor cranes, container cranes, fixed port solutions as well as offshore, ship, and floating cranes.
