Hyundai Material Handling (HMH) has announced the winners of this year’s dealer awards. In a ceremony held May 15th at the luxurious Chateau Elan Winery & Resort in Braselton, GA., Hyundai presented six dealers with awards in four main categories: Peak Performer, The Summit Award, The Apex Award, and The Chuck Leone Award for Dealer of the Year.

“We applaud the achievements of these outstanding dealers and are grateful to them for their stellar contributions to Hyundai Material Handling,” said HMH Executive Vice President/Chief Operating Officer Lewis Byers. “These six honorees exemplify our dedication to quality and commitment to our customers.”

The Peak Performer Awards are presented to dealers who exceed their goals in units, parts, and market share. This year’s winners are Hurricane Industrial (small market- less than 500 units), M&L Industries (medium market—500 – 1,499 units), and Lift Solutions (large market- 1,500-plus units).

The final three awards were presented to dealers with the highest sales volumes. Leavitt Canada garnered this year’s Summit Award (third highest), and HMH recognized Thompson Forklift with its penultimate Apex Award (second highest).

Closing out the ceremony, with top honors, Lonestar Forklift was presented with Hyundai’s prestigious Chuck Leone Award for Dealer of the Year. The award is named for Hyundai’s longtime leader, who passed away in 2021.

This year marks Hyundai’s 25th anniversary of selling forklifts in North America.
