Soima was founded in Viseu, Portugal in 1977 and began to manufacture tower 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.
In 2021, Soima became part of U.S.-based Stafford Crane Group (SCG) (www.staffordcranegroup.com). Several new Soima tower crane models are being developed based on SCG’s decades of experience in the rental industry.
