(1) Purpose of the company

Jungheinrich AG is headquartered at the street address ‘Am Stadtrand 35’ in Hamburg (Germany) and has an entry under HRB 44885 in the commercial register of the Hamburg District Court.

The Jungheinrich Group operates at the international level — with the main focus on Europe — as a manufacturer and supplier of products in the fields of material handling equipment and warehousing technology as well as of all services connected with these activities. These encompass the lease/short-term hire and sales financing of the products, the maintenance and repair of forklift trucks and equipment, the sale of used equipment as well as project planning and general contracting for complete logistics systems. The product range extends from simple hand pallet trucks to complex, integrated complete systems.

The main production pool still consists of the plants in Norderstedt, Moosburg and Lüneburg (all of which are located in Germany). Battery-powered low-platform trucks will be manufactured in the newly built plant in Landsberg (Germany) from the middle of 2009 onwards. Battery-powered pallet trucks for the East Asian market are manufactured in the factory in Qingpu/Shanghai (China). Hand pallet trucks are still sourced from third parties in China.

Used equipment is reconditioned in the used equipment centre in Klipphausen/Dresden (Germany).

Jungheinrich maintains a large and close-knit direct marketing network with 17 sales and distribution centres/branch establishments in Germany and 25 company-owned sales and service companies in other European countries. Further foreign companies are located in Brazil, China, Singapore, Thailand, and in the USA. In addition, overseas, Jungheinrich products are distributed via local dealers.
