Whats happening with Doosan ?

Heard jungle drums today regarding Doosan Infracore.They are going to be pulling out of the Materials Handling Market to concentrate on other activities.
Will that have an impact on Carrylift ?

Carry Lift seem to be owned by a company called Corporate Acquisitions & investment this company owns plant hire companies who use Doosan equipment. This company seems to be backed by Fred Done from betfred. They look still to be selling Nissan and Hoist equipment

Doosan wants to sell forklift business
Seoul, South Korea
Doosan Infracore Co is considering selling its forklift business to focus on its construction equipment business and to secure capital for global expansion.
A company spokesman told Dow Jones International News that Doosan wants to inject proceeds from a potential sale to build excavator plants in China and Brazil.
He said the company has 50-55% share of the domestic forklift market.
