I have been employed in a clerical position for most of my working life. After having
my children I returned to the work force part time doing research, compiling statistics

children. I am actively involved as a volunteer with my children’s school, Scouting

Ann Hofmans
General Manager
The internet’s been my work environment since 1996. Through Forkliftaction.com,
I’ve been given the opportunity to help create something great from the beginning.
Apart from forklifts, I love my family. Born and raised in Belgium I gained a passion
for languages, chocolate and special beers. You can also find me reading, writing,
swimming and travelling.

I joined FLA in May 07 soon after arriving in Australia from South Africa. I have

Before joining Forkliftaction.com in its first year I worked in forklift dealerships
