The history of the forklift truck starts early in the twentieth century with the creation of a three-wheeled cart for use in a factory. Some time later, the front of the cart is equipped with a lifting system and in the back, space was created for a driver.

Today, the modern forklift truck is a piece of advanced technology with a wide array of possibilities and applications all over the world.
