MH Equipment will stock Combilift

Forklift dealer MH Equipment has been appointed as a dealer for Combilift.

"The products from Combilift are recognised for their application innovation as well as for productivity, durability and quality, which well supports MH's commitment to provide its customers innovative solutions and unparalleled value while striving to be a good steward of resources," says MH Equipment president Fred Metzger.

Combilift, based in Monaghan, Ireland, has grown to become the global leader in the long-handling market.

"As a globally recognised company with localised service and support through our key dealer network, Combilift is ideally placed to work alongside MH Equipment in providing a high-quality service to customers," says Paul Short, Combilift North American sales president.

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

In 1994, the company was purchased by current CEO John Wieland. Since then, it has grown from a relatively small company of 50 employees into an organisation comprised of multiple dealerships, over 700 employees and 28 servicing locations throughout the Midwest.
