Orlando, Monday, 15 September 2025.
This Monday Vekoma opened an expanded Orlando office to anchor U.S. operations amid a run of high-profile North American deliveries — notably the family coaster Yeti Trek at Santa’s Village and Siren’s Curse, North America’s tallest, longest tilt coaster, at Cedar Point. For procurement and operations teams, the new regional hub promises tangible benefits: tighter project management, faster factory-acceptance testing oversight, localized spare-parts inventory and closer technical collaboration on control systems and ride-dynamics tuning. That closer proximity is designed to reduce logistical friction for large shipments and accelerate onsite commissioning of mechanically complex installs like tilt-coaster mechanisms. Strategically, the move signals Vekoma’s intent to capture incremental market share in compact family and next‑gen coaster segments while improving schedule certainty and field-response times. Retail and procurement professionals should expect smoother warranty workflows and shorter lead windows for parts and service as Vekoma scales its local support in response to growing installed bases across U.S. parks.
