Clark Material Handling Company, a global manufacturer of forklift trucks, has expanded its Lexington, Kentucky manufacturing facility which will significantly increase the under-roof manufacturing capacity at the facility by more than 200%.<\/p>\n

Beginning in May 2016, Clark<\/a> will start production of its popular ECX (four-wheel electric) and TMX (three-wheel electric) models in Lexington, which were previously produced in San Luis Potosi, Mexico. The ECX and TMX will join the NPX, ESX, PWX and HWX models, currently produced in Clark\u2019s Lexington manufacturing facility.<\/p>\n

In conjunction with this re-shoring of production to Lexington, Clark<\/a> has purchased an adjacent four acre parcel of land including a multi-purpose building to augment its existing facilities which now total over 162,000 square feet at the Lexington campus.<\/p>\n

This expansion at Clark<\/a> is the first phase in growing its global footprint in North America, Brazil and Europe. When the expansion is complete, by 2020, it is anticipated that Clark\u2019s global manufacturing capabilities will have grown 1.5 times from its current size.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe investment Clark<\/a> is making in its Lexington manufacturing operations is a direct result of the significant increase in business opportunities that Clark<\/a> has experienced over the past two years,\u201d said Dennis Lawrence, president and CEO. \u201cThe expansion of manufacturing operations in North America solidifies Clark\u2019s long-term commitment to its dealers and customers while providing additional employment opportunities for Central Kentuckians.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
