Lexington's Clark Manufacturer Expanding

forkliftaction.com

  CLARK Material Handling Company is expanding its Lexington operation.  It amounts to almost a five million dollar investment.

The four point eight million dollar investment by CLARK is expected to create 30 full time jobs at the Lexington facility.  The long standing manufacturer plans to begin production of its four-wheel electric and three wheel electric forklift trucks next May.  Those models were  previously produced in Mexico. 

CLARK expects the project will increase its Lexington production by more than 200 percent.  The company also bought a four acre parcel of land including a multi purpose building adjacent to its Lexington facility to accommodate growth.
