HYSTER TAKES OVER BGM EQUIPMENT

Lexington, United States
Friday, 2 Feb 2001

LEXINGTON, USA -- Hyster MidEast has completed the acquisition of BGM Equipment Company's Lexington, Kentucky, operation.

General manager Bob Risheill said the acquisition confirmed Hyster MidEast would continue to invest in the forklift industry and "expand our operations to provide the highest levels of service possible to our expanding customer base".

Hyster MidEast was formed from the merger of the former Bode-Finn Company and Quimbyh Material Handling, both in Ohio. The Kentucky acquisition is aimed at reinforcing Hyster's presence in the region.
