Wolter Group has acquired A D Lift Truck, a family-owned and -operated forklift and materials handling company with over 40 years in the industry.

This marks the Wolter Group's 11th acquisition in the last 10 years.

The Missouri-based forklift company serves the St. Louis Metro Area as well as Southern Illinois from its two facilities located in St. Louis and St. Clair.

A D Lift Truck supplies new and used forklifts, materials handling equipment, warehouse & safety products, pallet racking, dock equipment, 24/7 equipment servicing, parts, forklift operator training, and more to their wide network of customers.

The acquisition of A D Lift Truck expands Wolter Group's offering of Kion North America's Linde and Baoli lines of electric, gas and LP forklifts.

In the wake of the ownership change, A D Lift Truck will become a new dealer of Doosan forklifts and materials handling equipment.

"This partnership allows us to further expand our footprint across the Midwest while equipping A D Lift Truck customers with the Wolter Group of Companies' extensive product and solution portfolio," explains Jerry Weidmann, president of Wolter Group LLC. "We understand that businesses are changing the way they operate and we want to be there to offer our trusted expertise and guidance."

Rudy Dodorico, former owner of AD Lift Truck, will continue to run the AD Lift operations as part of the Wolter Group LLC.
