Production started in July 2018 in the Ancenis (France) factory and the M300H model is available in capacities from 1500 to 3500 kg both in Diesel and LPG.

From retail to wholesale, manufacturing to distribution, the CESAB P200 and S200 ranges offer a flexible solution for all operations managed by people on foot.
