The biggest thing that excites me about Jungheinrich is their dedication to Automation and their willingness to work with us to help us understand

HJI Supply Chain Solutions, a 3rd-party logistics company based in Louisville, Kentucky, provides logistics services to leading corporations through integrated solutions and material management services. As a leader in the logistics industry, HJI relies on a fleet of 3-wheel forklifts and turret trucks to keep their business moving.
Reliability and service are crucial for HJI. The business relies on the efficient synchronization of their machinery to meet demand for a variety of products.
For some time HJI experienced problems with the type of equipment and the service that was being provided. After coming across Jungheinrich’s dedicated customer service and quality assurance, the goal alignment seemed to match.
Integration between the Jungheinrich Turret Trucks and EFG 3-wheel forklifts flowed seamlessly and “morale went up” as operators loved having all the control at their fingertips and did not have to worry about equipment dying to due to power.
Overall productivity growth:
“We are not waiting on down forklifts, we’re not trying to dual utilize equipment - it's actually working and being efficient,” said HJI’s Shane Allgeier.
“Jungheinrich translated into success for HJI simply because we are able to utilize our space better.”
By implementing the Jungheinrich fleet, HJI was able to maximize their current space from 12-foot aisles to 6-foot aisles - allowing greater revenue per square footage.
Plans for the future: HJI Supply Chain Solutions is not slowing down.
“We're trying to reach that next avenue as fast as we can through the Innovation that Jungheinrich provides. We have been very pleased with the fleet, and we will continue to purchase them as we grow” said Shane Allgeier and Emily Stennis.
