Korea's initial domestic lift truck marketplace was an open-import enterprise. In the 1960's, Korea Machinery Co. Ltd. began to import assembled forklifts as part of a nationwide equipment expansion venture. Initial sales of this industrial equipment focused on large business groups, the armed services and on state-run companies. This ultimately led to a unification with Daewoo Heavy Industries Ltd. In 1976, the Forklift Division begun business operations throughout Korea to service and sell this heavy equipment. By 1978, a lift truck production plant was successfully completed. Continuous technical training became the new focus for improving quality and product development.
Daewoo started the first domestic lift truck business in 1967, and quickly acquired a massive 90% share in the Korean Materials Handling market. By the 1980's, Daewoo's advanced technological improvements combined with sales success placed them in a situation of significant expansion of their forklift operations.
Caterpillar Industrial Inc. of the U.S. in 1981, proposed a joint venture project to help them in the very competitive North American materials handling market. This joint-venture proved highly lucrative for Daewoo and their lift truck sales expanded greatly. In 1984, the company completed construction of a new facility to help in manufacturing high end value-added products for export. In 1993, the company had a international sales network and started exporting versions they had developed through in-house technology, as an sovereign brand. Certifications were then acquired from CE of Europe, UL of the United States and ISO 14001 and ISO 9001, securing growth opportunities into overseas markets.
