MH Equipment's new Evansville facility
MH Equipment's Evansville branch has relocated to a new facility. The new building is officially open for business and will soon be hosting an open house and ribbon cutting.

Mike Goebel, president - south/east region for MH Equipment, says: "By living out our value statements, we have experienced tremendous growth. This growth prompted our move to Evansville's north side, where we can continue to excel in the service that allowed us to earn the business of our current customers as a primary consideration.

"The move, which doubles our previous square footage, will also allow for us to continue growing our rental expansion products, like AWP and specialty lifts."

MH Equipment began in Peoria, Illinois in 1952 as one of the smallest Hyster forklift dealerships, but has grown to become one of the largest and fastest-growing full-service materials handling providers in the United States.

Since 1994, MH has grown organically and through acquisitions, from a small company of 50 employees and three locations into an organisation composed of multiple dealerships with over 800 employees and 27 servicing locations throughout Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
