# Ricobana Abadi: A Legacy of Mining Excellence and Career Opportunities
Established on February 19, 1981, Ricobana Abadi began its journey as a specialized provider of heavy equipment services and spare parts. Over the decades, the company has evolved into a formidable force within Indonesia’s industrial landscape, consistently adapting to the dynamic needs of the domestic heavy equipment market.
## A Legacy of Strategic Growth and Innovation
The company’s trajectory has been defined by key partnerships and a steady expansion into diverse sectors. In 1985, recognizing the surging demand for heavy machinery, Ricobana expanded its operations to include comprehensive rental and contracting services. A major milestone occurred in 1986 when Kobelco International (S) Co., Pte., Ltd. (KISCO) appointed the company as the exclusive agent for Kobelco spare parts—a partnership that lasted until 1998.
