Telehandler supplier JLG Industries has opened a new sales and service centre in Jurong, Singapore, as part of its ongoing initiative to capitalise on growth in the Asian market.

The Jurong office will be JLG's headquarters for retail sales, warranty, parts distribution, service and other parts of its ground support package in Asia.

Craig Paylor, president of JLG, says the Asian market has growth potential and JLG continues to concentrate efforts in those areas. "With the opening of the new Singapore facility, JLG is in a better position to provide ground support, aftermarket sales and service support to the Asian market.

"This facility demonstrates JLG's continued commitment to growing our business with customers in Asia."

Last November, JLG broke ground on a manufacturing facility in Tianjin, China (Forkliftaction.com News #387).

The new Chinese manufacturing facility will produce JLG access equipment specifically for the Asian market.

Forkliftaction's JOB MARKET

It’s the year 2000. You’re in front of a boxy beige desktop waiting for the screeching ramblings of your dial-up to reach its finale. You go to Yahoo!, MSN, or maybe AOL, and start the mind-numbing process of finding your very specific needle in the digital haystack. And with web pages loading one image at a time, patience isn’t just a virtue – it’s a requirement!

As clumsy as this early iteration seems now, this technology was the great enabler that allowed Forkliftaction to connect to the industry across the globe.  

To everyone who has connected with Forkliftaction in the past 25 years, thank you for your contribution to our success! We feel deeply touched by your words of encouragement.
