30 meter in die lug gee jou ’n ander perspektief oor wie en wat Merlo is. Tussen die toetsbaan, fabrieksterrein en groen masjiene in Italië, draai die gesprek oor wie Merlo is as maatskappy en wat agter hul telehandlers staan. Die video raak aan Merlo se geskiedenis, kwaliteitbeheer, in-huis vervaardiging, fabriekstoetsing, innovasie en hul fokus op langtermyn ondersteuning. Pieter verduidelik ook hoekom Merlo se manier van bou en dink belangrik is vir boere wat in landboumasjinerie belê.
