We have good experience selling Chinese made forklifts and reach trucks. Last year alone, we sold more than 100 units to our markets. Chinese trucks definitely have some niggly manufacturing and quality problems but so do European/American trucks sometimes with their sophisticated electronics, drive, etc. With a good after-sales service and support, it is definitely a viable and profitable business. Their technology is simple without the sophistication and electronics of European/American makes. Plus the parts are relatively cheap so it is not painful to provide warranties if labor costs are not too expensive. I would recommend any fleet users to use Chinese trucks ifrom reliable manufacturer such as Hangcha if running costs is a major concern, as the trucks are decent working machines suitable for most day to day jobs.

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
