Maini hosts materials handling seminars

Yale’s exclusive distributor in India, Maini Materials Movement Ltd, hosted a series of four materials handling seminars to demonstrate the wide choice of equipment and solutions available for customers in India.

The events, held in Chennai, Pune, Ahmedabad and Delhi, demonstrated Maini and Yale’s commitment to the Indian marketplace and the class leading products available to the growing materials handling and logistics sectors.

Representatives from over 200 organisations attended these events where Yale shared its knowledge of global emerging warehousing trends and the practical ways Indian customers can increase output and productivity.

James Newman, Yale’s territory manager for India said: “The four regional seminars position Yale and Maini as the ideal materials handling solution and equipment partners. Many of the delegates who attended these events were representing multinational companies and already NMHG customers in other global operating theatres. Yale’s Global experience should reassure them that by doing business with us their materials handling needs are in safe hands.”
