Corpaq seem to be concentrating on Hassle and Hyundai but are buying many companies so to sell doesn't fit with what they are doing.


Unless Briggs have made a big offer

OK, did some asking and have it on pretty good authority that it's nonsense. No one seems to know where the rumour started.

The way this industry is going I'd never say never,
But Carrylift have been doing some buying up with the acquisition of United Forktrucks last year to give them network coverage in the south and east. Seems to me there more interested in growing then selling up.

Carrylift is owned by Corpacq who also own other forklift companies so i doubt this is true, but you never know the forklift industry is full of surprises.
