MHI<\/a> has released, in collaboration with Oxford Economics, a new report, \u201cHandling the US Economy: The Economic Impact of the Material Handling Industry.\u201d This report explores the relationship between material handling and wider economy of the supply chain, finding that \u201cthe economic contribution of this industry extends far beyond the locations where [equipment] is manufactured\u2026 or designed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Material handling firms are helping to support more industries as time goes on and the economic impact of this support is widespread. Oxford Economics conducted \u201cresearch, analysis, and impact modeling to clearly quantify the economic contribution of the material handling in the US.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis report shows just how important the material handling industry is to keeping our economy thriving. Not only do we provide the actual goods that handle materials, we also provide support services such as consulting, leasing, and design services to generate more value throughout the supply chain and the wider economic environment,\u201d says George Prest, CEO of MHI<\/a>. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to share this information with you to help you with your business decisions down the road.\u201d<\/p>\n
