PHL exports 75-80% of our forklift trucks abroad. The export of forklifts has always been a very strong side of our business. PHL is well known everywhere in the world as a reputable company and we pride ourselves on never letting down our clients. PHL has been and plans to be market leader in our industry for many years to come.

For, this reason and for many years, companies from around the world have been coming to purchase forklifts from PHL. England is a well established market for second hand material handling equipment. We have collected that experience and try to expand our horizons even further by selling to countries that we have never sold to before. To be competitive we help our customers not only with good prices for forklifts but also with finding the right transport solution. It is normally cheaper to transport full lorry loads from England to anywhere in Europe than from within Europe itself. There is very simple reason for this – England is importing country. Thousand of lorries are coming fully loaded through the channel every day and the best option available to companies to send their lorries back full is to be filled up with second hand industrial equipment. England’s trade balance is 70/30 for the import from all the international trade.

Sea transport also plays a large part in our export business.. As an island nation most parts of England are close to water and her major ports like Southampton, Liverpool, Felixstowe, Tilbury and Portsmouth. These days container transport is becoming cheaper and quicker, yet another reason for the increased export.
