Crown has opened a new sales and service location in Champlin, Minnesota

Crown Equipment Corporation has announced the opening of a new sales and service location in Champlin, Minnesota. The new, expanded facility will replace the previous location in Saint Paul to help the company meet growing customer needs throughout the state and in western Wisconsin.

Located northwest of Minneapolis, the Crown Lift Trucks facility offers a range of materials handling technologies, products and services. This includes forklifts, warehouse design solutions, Integrity Parts and Service System, automated warehouse solutions and Crown's wireless InfoLink fleet and operator management system.

"We've seen steady growth in this region, especially from customers in the medical and retail industries," says Tim Jacobsen, branch manager, Crown Equipment. "This larger facility will accommodate the resources we need to support our customers in this growing market and continue to provide the level of expertise and service they need to keep their businesses running smoothly."

The new location features a technology demonstration centre where customers can try Crown forklifts and make informed purchasing decisions on the advanced equipment and technology they need to support growth, control costs and enhance safety and energy efficiency.
