Ep #51 Toyota Material Handling North America New Manufacturing Facility (On Site)

🦺I was honored to take The Warehouse Underground on the road when I was invited to the opening of Toyota Material Handling North America's new manufacturing facility in Columbus, Indiana!

🙌To say that it is impressive is a major understatement. It's big (295,000 square feet), meticulously laid out, and has a highly engaged & proud employee work force to match.

💡A $100M investment with 140 new jobs coming in and those folks will be busy with a growing emphasis on electric!

Why? Because more than 1 in 3 forklifts sold in the US is manufactured by them.

Got a chance to have some great chats with Mike Field (Chief Operations Officer), Tony Miller (Chief Supply Officer), and Sam Coles (Chief Sales & Marketing Officer!)
