NHK Takes Over Stapler Distribution Duties
Hyundai Material Handling, a leading manufacturer of forklift trucks and warehouse technology, is expanding its operations and product portfolio this year. The company, founded in 1985, has its roots in the Rhine-Main area and the Mannheim/Heidelberg region, but its reach extends far beyond these regions.
With two factories in Korea (Gunsan and Ulsan) boasting a combined production capacity of 24,000 units, Hyundai Material Handling is a global player. The company operates in multiple countries worldwide, including South Korea, the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, Poland, Russia, China, India, Japan, Australia, and several others across Asia, Europe, and the Americas.
The company's focus on premium quality is evident in its commitment to research and development, innovative technology, and modern factory automation. This, coupled with competitive prices and its own production, has enabled Hyundai Material Handling to serve a wide range of industries effectively.
Hyundai Material Handling is not new to the market, having started with a workforce of just ten employees. Today, the company's dealer network covers all product areas, including the 9V series diesel forklifts. The European department of Hyundai Material Handling distributes its products through more than 60 dealers in 22 countries. Worldwide, the company has a network of over 230 dealers in 108 countries.
In a strategic move to further expand its reach, Hyundai Material Handling has entered into a partnership with NHK business. This partnership focuses on counterbalance forklifts up to ten tons and warehouse technology. Marcus Kissel, the leader of NHK business, sees good prospects in this partnership.
Hyundai Material Handling is also looking ahead to the future, planning to launch a wide range of new products onto the market by 2025, 2026, and 2027. These new products are expected to include large electric pallet jacks up to 9000 kg capacity and various warehouse technologies.
The partnership with NHK business is part of Hyundai Material Handling's expansion strategy, aiming to establish strong dealers in key regions. With its commitment to quality, innovation, and growth, Hyundai Material Handling continues to set the standard in the material handling industry.
