Would suggest you first investigate what level of parts & technical support is available in your country for any brand of Chinese F/L or other makes and how it compares to support you currently have.
Anyone can offer low priced equipment but timely support (part/technical)to keep your equipment up and running can be less than satisfactorily.
Do you home work.

What type of 2500kg truck are you looking for - battery, LPG, diesel powered? Be a bit more specific.

I recall a brand & manufacturer called Bulkancar (Bulgarian made) that tried to introduce product in the US back in the late 1970s - they were cheap, their quality was bad, their product support was terrible - a recipe for disaster. Remember well there exhibit at a national MH show in Chicago's McCormick place. A fellow name (the late) Ted Jackson headed up this market introduction. Ted was part of the Datsun group in Mayfield, Tennessee. often refereed as a the Mayfield mafia. Ted was a good man and I knew him well. He tried to hire me a couple times. I looked over his exhibit and noticed the one leg of a 4 round pipe OHG was shimmed to fit with a welded together stack of steel plates. They promoted the idea that they were largest lift truck manufacturer in the whole wide world.

Fact of the week
The dot-com bubble, a period of large and rapid investments in internet-based companies, peaked in 2000 and saw the Nasdaq Composite index rise by 579%. Then the bubble imploded. As the value of tech stocks plummeted, cash-strapped internet start-ups became worthless and collapsed.
