Mitsubishi Logisnext Americas (Logisnext), a provider of material handling, automation and fleet solutions started work on its new production facility at Logisnext’s Houston headquarters campus, at 2121 W. Sam Houston Parkway N. in Houston. The state-of-the-art facility, set for completion early in 2024, will provide increased production capabilities to further support the growing demand for electric lift trucks and warehouse products.

The new facility will support manufacturing of key electric warehouse products across the Jungheinrich, Cat lift trucks, Mitsubishi forklift trucks and UniCarriers Forklift product lines. The new facility represents a key investment in Logisnext’s long-term electric growth strategy to support its customers throughout North America.

With a total floor area of 73,000 square feet, the new facility will expand Logisnext’s current electric manufacturing capabilities by serving as a dedicated fabrication space for in-house welding and painting of masts and frames. The expansion of robotic welding will contribute to Logisnext’s ongoing focus for improved efficiency.
