ABOUT US

SOIMA Cranes

​

Soima was founded in Viseu, Portugal, in 1977 by Manuel Morais and his business partners Agostinho Almeida and Serafim Faro, initially to manufacture a variety of construction equipment, including plate rolling machines, presses, overhead traveling cranes, brick layers and concrete mixers.

​

In 1980 SOIMA began to manufacture tower cranes exclusively, including hammerhead, flat top and self-erecting cranes. It soon established itself as a leader in the southwestern European tower crane market with sales throughout Portugal, Spain and France.

​

In the past two decades, Soima Cranes has gone global. It has produced over 6,600 tower cranes which are represented on every inhabited continent, with distributors now offering 24/7 service throughout the world. Soima’s work has resulted in numerous industry awards in Portugal and globally.

​

Today, from its modern factory in Canas de Senhorim, Portugal, SOIMA has annual production capacity of 400 tower cranes. And Soima Cranes maintains its core values as a family-owned and operated company, with children of all three founders active in company leadership and operations.
