“Customers continue to face an increasingly demanding landscape, making the support and expertise of our dealers all the more critical, whether they’re addressing a maintenance issue, finding the right forklift for the customer’s operation or selecting a motive power source,” Bob Sattler, vice president, Dealer Business Development, said. 

“Our Dealer of Distinction recipients have risen to these challenges and beyond, and the consistency with which they stand out among such a large, talented dealer network is extraordinary,” he added.

To receive the award, Hyster said that dealers must meet rigorous business practice standards and performance criteria, which are assessed and modified annually to ensure they align with evolving customer expectations and industry demands.
