Bobcat Company has recognised 12 members of its dealer network across North America as the 2026 Dealer Leadership Group for its materials handing division.

The 12 businesses were recognised for what Bobcat describes as “exceptional performance, operational excellence and market leadership in serving customers across warehousing, logistics and manufacturing environments”. 

The Dealer Leadership Group is selected through Bobcat’s rigorous Dealer Performance Review, and represents the highest-performing materials handling dealers in the company’s North American network. 

The evaluation measures key indicators including business performance, operational execution and customer support, while enabling dealers to benchmark against peers.

The 12 honourees this year are:

  • All Pro Alaska – Alaska  
  • Alliance Material Handling, Inc. – Maryland  
  • Associated Supply Company, Inc. – Texas
  • Atlantic Forklift Services, LLC – North Carolina  
  • Burwell Material Handling – South Dakota
  • Forklift Systems, Inc. – Tennessee  
  • Forklifts of Minnesota – Minnesota  
  • Lift Power, Inc. – Florida
  • Lift Truck Sales & Service, Inc. – Missouri  
  • Material Handling, Inc. – Tennessee  
  • Quality Lift Trucks – California  
  • Wolter, Inc. – Wisconsin

Mike Ballweber, president of Doosan Bobcat North America, says: “We are proud to recognise these top-performing members of the Bobcat dealer network”.

“Our dealers are instrumental in advancing the Bobcat brand across North America, and their commitment to customers, communities and operational excellence drives our continued success,” Ballweber adds.

Jarrod Steck, Bobcat's vice president of material handling products, says the dealers recognised in the leadership group reflect not only strong performance, but a shared commitment to helping customers accomplish more.

“As members of the Dealer Leadership Groups, representatives from these dealerships serve as strategic advisors to Bobcat leadership, providing insight, feedback and market perspective that help guide future product development, programs and initiatives,” Steck continues.
