Caterpillar is selling another piece of the former Bucyrus International distribution business — this time to the world’s largest Cat dealer.
Check out the Journal Sentinel story here. From it:
Separately, Caterpillar said in December it would sell a part of its Bucyrus distribution business to the industrial division of Malaysia’s Sime Darby for about $360 million.
“We are making good progress as we transition the product distribution and support of former Bucyrus machinery to Cat dealers around the world,” Steve Wunning, Caterpillar group president, said in a news release.
