Korea's original home-based forklift market was an open-import enterprise. In the 1960's, Korea Machinery Co. Ltd. started to import assembled forklifts as part of a nationwide equipment expansion project. Early sales of this industrial equipment focused on large business communities, the armed forces and on state-run companies. This ultimately led to a merger with Daewoo Heavy Industries Ltd. In 1976, the Forklift Division commenced trade operations throughout Korea to service and sell this heavy equipment. By 1978, a forklift production plant was successfully completed. Continuous technical instruction grew to become the new focus for enhancing quality and product development.
Daewoo started the first home-based lift truck business in 1967, and rapidly gained a massive 90% share in the Korean Materials Handling market. By the 1980's, Daewoo's advanced technological advancements combined with sales success placed them in a position of considerable expansion of their forklift business.
Caterpillar Industrial Inc. of the U.S. in 1981, proposed a joint venture project to help them in the highly competitive North American materials handling industry. This project proved highly successful for Daewoo and their lift truck sales expanded greatly. In 1984, the company finished construction of a new facility to help in producing high end value-added goods for export. In 1993, the corporation had a international sales network and started exporting models they had established through in-house expertise, as an independent brand. Certifications were then acquired from CE of Europe, UL of the United States and ISO 14001 and ISO 9001, securing expansion opportunities into international marketplaces.
