Hyster has named 16 North American businesses in its 2015 Dealer of Distinction listing, an annual award recognising dealers who have driven their companies to the highest level of performance in all functional areas of the business.

Hyster says 16 have fulfilled defined performance criteria and operating standards, including customer satisfaction, new unit sales, rental, aftermarket and service support, engineered products, training and general management.

"The Hyster brand is synonymous with unrivaled toughness, dependability, innovation and a commitment to service before, during and after the sale," says David Furman, the group's president of sales and marketing.

"We're delighted to honour this select group of dealers for their outstanding achievements and contributions in support of Hyster and its customers."
