Korea's initial home-based forklift marketplace was an open-import enterprise. In the 1960's, Korea Machinery Co. Ltd. started to import assembled forklifts as part of a nationwide machinery expansion venture. Initial product sales of this manufacturing equipment focused on large business groups, the armed services and on state-run companies. This eventually led to a merger 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 manufacturing plant was successfully completed. Continuous technical education grew to become the new focus for enhancing quality and product development.
Daewoo began the first domestic forklift business in 1967, and quickly acquired a whopping 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 considerable growth of their lift truck operations.
Caterpillar Industrial Inc. of the U.S. in 1981, proposed a cooperative venture project to help them in the highly competitive North American materials handling industry. This project proved highly lucrative for Daewoo and their lift truck product sales expanded greatly. In 1984, the company finished construction of a new facility to help in producing high end value-added products for export. In 1993, the company had a global sales system and started exporting versions they had established through in-house expertise, as an sovereign product. Certifications were then acquired from CE of Europe, UL of the United States and ISO 14001 and ISO 9001, securing expansion possibilities into international marketplaces.
