Toyota Material Handling Europe

Toyota Material Handling Europe inaugurated a new 7,000 m² powder coating facility at its forklift factory in Mjölby, Sweden. The investment of 350 million kronor is the company's largest production investment ever and supports a target of 120,000 electric forklifts per year.

Toyota Material Handling Europe will partner with Croatian technology company Gideon to develop software for autonomous mobile robots (AMRs).

Toyota Material Handling Manufacturing France will invest €8 million to open a new production line at its Ancenis plant in November 2022, producing 900 additional Tonero forklifts (4-8t) per year and creating 45 jobs. The model was previously made only in China.

Toyota Material Handling Europe will acquire a major share (initially 66%) of Italian material handling manufacturer SIMAI, with a plan to reach 100% within a short period.
