Korea's original domestic lift truck market was an open-import enterprise. In the 1960's, Korea Machinery Co. Ltd. begun to import assembled forklifts as part of a nationwide equipment expansion project. Initial sales of this industrial equipment focused on large business groups, the armed services and on state-run companies. This eventually led to a merger with Daewoo Heavy Industries Ltd. In 1976, the Forklift Division commenced business operations throughout Korea to overhaul and sell this heavy equipment. By 1978, a forklift production plant was successfully completed. Continuous technical education became the new focus for enhancing quality and product development.
Home-based forklift business for Daewoo started in 1967 and grew to an astounding 90% market share in Korea. By the 1980's, Daewoo's progressive technological enhancements combined with sales success placed them in a position of considerable growth of their forklift operations.
In 1981, Caterpillar Industrial Inc. of the United States, proposed a cooperative venture project to counter act competitive pressures in the US materials handling market. This plan greatly expanded Daewoo's forklift sales. Construction was finished in 1984 to facilitate a modern plant which helped launch the company for the fabrication of high end added-value goods suitable for export. In 1993, the company had a global sales system and started exporting versions they had developed through in-house technology, as an independent product. Certifications were then acquired from CE of Europe, UL of the United States and ISO 14001 and ISO 9001, securing growth possibilities into overseas markets.
