 The new Baoli diesel series offers enhanced safety and easy maintenance. |
2014 was a year of dynamic initiatives for Baoli and its long-term UK exclusive distributor, Maxim. The resulting improvements added value to the dealer network and Baoli customers in the UK.Baoli has upgraded and expanded its
product portfolio, introducing new counterbalanced forklifts as well as warehouse trucks into the European market. The flagship new diesel series provides better visibility for the operator, more robust materials, enhanced safety and European-style painting.
The
Baoli development team always considers that dealer technicians must offer fast and reliable service. Therefore, all new trucks include well-known standard components. Spare parts are available via the
new Electronic Parts Catalogue (EPC). This online tool provides information about part numbers and pricing as well as the opportunity to order the parts quickly and easily.
Practical and reliable products remain Baoli's basic concept. However, Baoli is going beyond this. The establishment of Baoli Material Handling Europe, with its headquarters located in the capital of the Czech Republic, brings additional benefits. The team in Prague is developing the distributor and dealer network across Europe, manages all matters concerning KION Baoli in China and coordinates regularly knowledge exchange inside the network. Maxim is member of this growing network and attended the first European Baoli Distributor Event in May 2014. During this networking conference, firsthand information about the company's long-term strategy was communicated by the management of Baoli China, Baoli Europe as well as KION Group.
The European Baoli team provides additional support for Maxim and its dealers. For example, experienced Service Manager Jan Dastych is responsible for all after-sales services including spare parts and technical training. This year, he and Maxim held service training sessions for UK dealers at the new showroom of Maxim at Windsor, close to Heathrow Airport.
Maxim and Baoli have developed a spare parts stock which also services Baoli European distributors.
Baoli and Maxim used 2014 to build a strong foundation for 2015. Baoli sales in the UK have doubled in the last two years, reflecting the investments made by Maxim and Baoli. 2015 sees the 10th anniversary of the co-operation between Baoli and Maxim. This is a strong partnership which benefits dealers and end-users in the UK. Thanks to the added value, the anniversary year expects to see further growth.
