Toyota Material Handling Slovensko (TMHSK) has celebrated its 20th anniversary with the theme "Show must go up" this quarter.

A group of 130 customers, business partners and TMHSK employees attended an official ceremony and gala dinner to mark Toyota Material Handling's 20 years of operation in the Slovak market.

Luboš Imre, managing director of TMHSK, opened the evening program, which included a talk show hosted by famous presenter Adela Banášová on the theme, "Show must go up".

The presentation covered three main areas: the history of TMHSK over the years; the company's latest product and service technologies, including the I_Site fleet management system, presented by after-sales manager Uwe Wolf and sales support and marketing manager Marek Kajan; and the future of the company, presented by Hans van Leeuwen, vice president of Toyota Material Handling Europe.

Van Leeuwen presented on Toyota's logistic solutions, the new Li-ion products and also shared the company's Vision 2020.

Toyota Material Handling Slovensko, headquartered in Bratislava, Slovakia, was re-launched from a BT office, which had been operating since 1994. It employs about 60 people and offers hand pallet trucks and electric and combustion engine forklifts.
