Korea's original domestic forklift marketplace was an open-import enterprise. In the 1960's, Korea Machinery Co. Ltd. started to import assembled lift trucks as part of a national equipment expansion venture. Early sales of this industrial equipment focused on large business communities, the armed forces and on state-run corporations. This ultimately led to a unification with Daewoo Heavy Industries Ltd. In 1976, the Forklift Division begun trade operations throughout Korea to overhaul and sell this heavy equipment. By 1978, a forklift manufacturing plant was successfully completed. Continuous technical instruction became the new focus for improving quality and product development.
Daewoo started the first home-based lift truck business in 1967, and quickly acquired a whopping 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 substantial expansion of their lift truck business.
In 1981, Caterpillar Industrial Inc. of the United States, proposed a joint enterprise project to counter act competitive pressures in the US materials handling market. This project greatly expanded Daewoo's forklift sales. Construction was completed in 1984 to facilitate a new plant which helped establish the business for the fabrication of high added-value goods suited for export. In 1993, the company had a global sales system and started exporting designs they had developed through in-house expertise, as an independent product. Certifications were then acquired from CE of Europe, UL of the United States and ISO 14001 and ISO 9001, securing growth possibilities into overseas markets.
