With a new James Bond movie on screens around the world, it’s perhaps fitting that Forkliftaction.com News is looking “to Russia, with love”. Next week, our special feature will look at the rapidly changing Russian forklift market, and while we have gathered some very valuable input, we’re still keen to hear from players in the market – especially dealers and local Russian manufacturers. If you haven’t yet been contacted by our editorial team, please shoot us an email to info@forkliftaction.com, and we’ll follow up with a quick interview. And we promise you won’t be shaken or stirred!
