In February 2021, ZIEGLER Group (Albert Ziegler GmbH & Co. KG) received an order from Nigeria for the delivery of three new Z6 airport firefighting and rescue vehicles for the Anambra International Cargo Airport, located in Umueri, Nigeria.
These Z6 airport firefighting and rescue vehicles were delivered in January 2022 and will provide even more security at the airport, going forward.
