2018 proved to be a big year for MLA Holdings Pty Ltd (MLA). Already one of Australia\u2019s most established and renowned <\/span>forklift<\/span><\/a> suppliers, last year the company expanded not just to one market, but four: Gold Coast, Newcastle, Central Coast and the Hunter Region. <\/span><\/p>\n

The first of these markets was the Gold Coast, where MLA purchased local business Classic Forklifts, which began trading as Classic MLA from July 2018. <\/span><\/p>\n
