Otis France, a division of Farmington’s Otis Elevators, will supply 171 escalators and moving walkways over 15 years at sites in the Paris region.
Otis, a unit of Farmington’s United Technologies Corp., announced it has been awarded a “historic contract” to provide 75 escalators at two railway stations in Paris, Porte Maillot and Nanterre La Folie, and a shopping center, CNIT-La Défense, just outside the city.
Officials said the contract also calls for the installation of 94 escalators and two moving walkways at Haussmann Saint-Lazare, another railway station in Paris.
Haussmann Saint-Lazare station will receive the first shipment of machines in September as Otis plans to operate 120 machines by 2020.
Established 165 years ago, Otis offers products and services to companies in approximately 200 countries and territories.
