Hyster: a strong company borne out of tough times. Hyster was founded during the Great Depression in 1929 as Willamette-Ersted, a logging equipment manufacturer in the rugged Pacific Northwest. One customer and one solution at a time, Hyster grew into a world leader in the materials handling industry. During World War II, Hyster supplied mobile cranes to the American and British armies, which were regarded by one general as “one of the 10 most important weapons we have.” No matter the obstacle, no matter the task at hand, Hyster has always risen to the challenge to develop best-in-class materials handling solutions.

Today, Hyster is a leading forklift manufacturer. We strive to make the toughest, most dependable forklifts in the world that are ready to take on any materials handling job.
