Lanco has sold three divisions to to Remprex
Lanco International, parent company of Mi-Jack Products, Inc. of Hazel Crest, Illinois, has announced the sale of its Technical Services International (TSI), Hubert Line and Hubert Rail companies to Remprex, LLC.

Terms of the sale are confidential.

Frank Calomino, executive vice president of Lanco International, says: "We recognised early on that Remprex would represent an optimal path forward from a perspective of increased growth and innovation as one of our existing trusted partners and we are excited for both companies."

Remprex is a high-growth, technology-enabled company that has expanded rapidly in the last decade into many areas of the transportation ecosystem, including lift operations, engineering, equipment management, IT services and remote operations.

Remprex president and CEO Remy Diebes says the purchase forms part of their strategy to expand services in the rail and port facility space. He sees "unlimited growth opportunities" ahead.

Mi-Jack Products will continue to concentrate on building its manufacturing portfolio with expanded product lines in rail, port and industrial markets. "In addition, our efforts to provide parts and service support to our customers will be enhanced with state-of-the-art processes to deliver the best support for all our industries," Calomina adds.

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.
