Cascade Corporation and Meijer Handling Solutions have entered into a distribution agreement for Meijer's Kooi line of products in Australia.

"We're excited to deliver the value of Kooi products to the Australian market," says Michael Slobe, General manager of Cascade Australia. "Given the success of Cascade-Kooi in other regions, we look forward to providing these options to our customers here. We think forklift operators throughout the supply chain will find them to be effective, worthwhile tools to have."

Cascade boasts a strong, local presence in Australia that provides customers with a wide range of materials handling solutions. Through the new distribution agreement, Cascade Australia will be able to further expand on its portfolio of products.

Meijer's Kooi product offerings include the well-known Kooi Reachforks for double deep racking (hydraulic and manual versions), Rollerforks for slipsheet and pallet handling, Single Height Shift System, Mast Height Extension systems and several other value-oriented offerings.

"This expansion in distribution is a great opportunity for customers throughout Australia," says Folkert de Graaf, international sales and marketing manager of Meijer Handling Solutions. "With Cascade's extensive distribution capability, we'll be able to connect more people with the solutions they need for their particular application."

The Australian agreement follows the July signing of a distribution agreement throughout the Asia Pacific region.
