Hangcha Secures More Than 35,000 Square Metres in Chonburi for 10,000-Unit Forklift Plant Design

Hangcha Group signed a land purchase agreement with WHA for more than 35,000 square metres at WHA Eastern Seaboard Industrial Estate 3 for a planned forklift factory. The source gives design capacity of 10,000 units per year, but the confirmed stage is land acquisition and plant design, not actual output.

The planned base targets Southeast Asian demand for forklifts and industrial vehicles and is intended to strengthen Hangcha's regional service network and customer response. Its Chonburi location connects to manufacturing, warehouse and logistics users.

The source does not disclose investment value, groundbreaking date, building area, expected production start or employment. Land area and design capacity do not demonstrate completion.
