Dear reader,

Forkliftaction.com wishes to thank all its readers and members for their continued support during the last year.
Our team is keen to carry on delivering Forkliftaction.com's information and business services to the industry world wide.

2005 starts with exciting new opportunities with the launch of, potentially, the biggest online used materials handling market in the world, simply named the Marketplace. Forkliftaction.com's Marketplace, to be fully launched in February, offers dealers and sellers of used narrow aisle forklifts through to container handlers, reach stackers and attachments, the opportunity to find buyers. Buyers of used equipment will have instant access to a huge market, instantly sortable to meet your exact needs.

We will keep you advised as launch date nears.

26th of December 2004 brought a tragic ending to the year. The Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunamis remind us of our frailty in the face of great and overwhelming forces, compelling us to review the things that really matter to us as individuals, and the importance of love and family above all else.
Despite the utter terror of this event, many hands have stretched out to help, regardless of nationality, colour, or religion, often at great personal sacrifice.

Our heartfelt sympathy goes to all those affected by these events.

We welcome any suggestions from our readers, about how our international materials handling community might be best able to offer assistance to those people affected, and / or how Forkliftaction.com might help to facilitate this.
Within this community we have a huge resource of people, knowledge and assets at our disposal.
If you would like to share your ideas please email to www.forkliftaction.com.

We wish you all a healthy, warm and happy 2005.
Kind regards,

The Forkliftaction.com team.
