Abstract:



Growth Opportunities in End-User Strategies


Many end-user businesses see forklifts as a way to drive productivity, increase

throughput, and shorten response times. The use of forklifts in manufacturing

and distribution is no longer an afterthought. Manufacturers that offer products

which reduce end-user overhead costs, meet environmental regulations, and are

safe, will become market winners. The overall strength of North American

economies drives renewed demand for forklifts in this expanding industry.

This detailed Frost &Sullivan research evaluates the current state of the North

American forklift markets. It divides the industry into two major segments —

electric motor and internal combustion engine forklifts —and seven main sub-

segments. It identifies challenges facing market participants and suggests

strategies to overcome them. It is an excellent resource for companies looking

to take advantage of key market opportunities.


Post-Sales Service Drives Market Share


Most forklifts available offer similar features, so differentiation must not be

product-centered. The key for manufacturers is now providing comprehensive

after-sales support to their customers, making distribution channels extremely

important.


It is the dealer network that differentiates competitors from each other. After

all, the end user is buying productivity, not any particular brand of forklift,

states the author of this research. Manufacturers and their dealers 'ability to

take care of the end user effectively after the purchasing decision has been made

makes a big difference for the success of a product line.


NGV Segment Sought by Industry Leaders


Emission reduction regulations in the workplace challenges manufacturers of

internal combustion engine forklifts. Companies not offering electric forklifts

must design internal combustion engines powered by natural gas. Makers of

gasoline-fueled forklifts that do not convert to natural gas will see their market

share dramatically reduced.


Manufacturers are now required to produce forklifts that would be required to

restrict carbon monoxide (CO)exposure levels in the workplace to 50 parts

per million (ppm),or less, in an eight-hour work day, states the author.

Manufacturers that have the resources are either providing natural gas vehicles

(NGV)or implementing catalysts that convert gasoline into natural gas.

A thorough understanding of the latest factors shaping this industry is crucial to

market success, making this Frost &Sullivan research indispensable for you to

adopt winning strategies and improve your market position.
