en.Wedoany.com Reported - Komatsu-Mitsui Maquinarias Perú has won the machinery and equipment tender for the Tía María copper mine project (located in Arequipa) owned by Southern Perú Corporation. The company will supply mining trucks, shovels, and front-end loaders for the project. The first deliveries are expected to be completed by mid-2027, and the fleet will operate in autonomous mode, according to Komatsu-Mitsui CEO Julio Molina.

Molina stated that the fleet destined for the mining project under Grupo México will include 14 trucks, two electric shovels, one loader, and two drills. In a previous interview with Desde Adentro magazine, he noted that the company expects continued growth of 10% to 12% in 2026 and has committed to delivering trucks and shovels to multiple clients, including Antamina, as well as projects extending into 2027, such as Tía María.

The company's current top priority is to properly fulfill all delivery commitments made to customers. Komatsu-Mitsui is delivering trucks to Antamina and has committed to delivering two additional shovels between 2026 and 2027. At the same time, the company is also providing significant equipment deliveries to other clients in southern Peru.

The company believes that open-pit mining will remain the main driver of its business, particularly in segments related to ultra-class equipment, including high-capacity trucks, electric and hydraulic shovels.
