Now operating in Indiana, the company’s newest factory will produce the electric Class 1 Stand-Up Counterbalanced Forklift, which until recently was built only at the TMHNA factory in Greene, N.Y. The move will also boost Toyota’s ability to meet soaring market demand for electric-powered lift trucks, TMHNA President & CEO Brett Wood said. The electric forklift demand is likely to reach 80% before 2035, and our new factory is poised to address this electrification trend,” Wood said. Since the Columbus plant doesn’t order parts until immediately before they’re needed, supply chain delays can cause big trouble. We focus on keeping the sequence [of factory forklift assembly steps].
