How to Choose the Right Forklift for Your Business Needs

Selecting the right forklift for your business is a critical decision that can impact productivity, efficiency, and safety in your operations. With a wide range of options available in the market, it's essential to consider factors such as load capacity, lift height, and fuel type to ensure that you choose the forklift that best suits your specific requirements.

This blog briefly discusses how to navigate the process of selecting the right forklift for your business needs. In this way, it will be easier for Linde and OM Forklift Dealers in Kolkata and other cities to deliver the correct forklift for their clients.

Assessment of Operational Requirements

Before diving into the selection process, take the time to assess your operational requirements to determine the type of forklift best suited to your business needs. Consider the following factors:

Types of loads: Determine the size, weight, and nature of the loads you'll be handling regularly.

Indoor vs. outdoor use: Assess whether the forklift will primarily be used indoors in a warehouse or outdoors in a yard or construction site.

Space constraints: Evaluate the available space for maneuvering the forklift, including aisle width and ceiling height.

Usage frequency: Determine how often the forklift will be used and the duration of each operation.

Key Specifications and Features

Once you have a clear understanding of your operational requirements, consider the key specifications and features that are essential for your business so that they can be properly explained to suppliers like Matthews.

Load capacity: Choose a forklift with a load capacity that meets your requirements, taking into account the heaviest loads you'll need to lift.

Lift height: Determine the maximum lift height needed to reach storage racks or loading docks in your facility.

Fuel type: Decide whether you prefer an electric, gasoline, diesel, or propane-powered forklift based on factors such as indoor air quality regulations, operating costs, and fuel availability.

Fork length and width: Select fork dimensions that are appropriate for the size and shape of your loads.

Attachments: Consider any specialized attachments, such as side shifters, fork positioners, or clamp attachments, that may be required for your specific operations.

Total Cost of Ownership

In addition to the upfront purchase cost, it's essential to evaluate the total cost of ownership to make an informed decision.

Maintenance and service requirements: Research the maintenance and service requirements of different forklift models, including routine maintenance, parts availability, and service provider support.

Fuel and energy costs: Estimate the ongoing fuel or energy costs associated with operating the forklift, taking into account factors such as fuel efficiency and energy consumption.

Residual value: Consider the resale or trade-in value of the forklift at the end of its useful life to assess its long-term cost-effectiveness.

Choosing the right forklift for your business requires careful consideration of your operational requirements, key specifications, and total cost of ownership. Remember to consult with reputable OM and Linde Forklift Dealers in West Bengal or manufacturers from other regions to explore available options and find the best fit for your business needs.

By assessing your needs, evaluating available options, and considering factors such as load capacity, lift height, fuel type, and total cost of ownership; you can make an informed decision that optimizes efficiency, productivity, and safety in your operations.

MAXIMISE SPACE, MINIMISE FOOTPRINT WITH WOHR AUTOMATED CAR PARKING SYSTEMS.

Automated car parking systems is a trend that's here to stay. Across the world, real estate developers and municipal agencies have come to realise that scarcity of parking space is a very real problem that requires urgent consideration. The added problems of air pollution, wastage of time and fuel, traffic congestion, etc. make this situation even more serious.

The automatic car parking system is one of the best innovations of our times. It is a multi-level parking system in which cars are parked vertically, thereby using less ground space. The automatic car parking system typically has horizontal pallets or carts in each level and a vertical lift that carries the cars from the drive level to and from the different floors for parking and retrieving.

The driver is removed from the parking process. The car is driven to an entry point where the driver and passengers exit the car. It is then automatically transported to its allotted space.

Automated car parking systems are made of steel that can withstand high pressure and tension. A case in point is Wohr's Combiparker 555 installed outdoors, at a commercial complex in Kolkata, West Bengal. In August 2020, when Cyclone Amphan wreaked havoc on the state, bringing trees, buildings and other structures to the ground, the Combiparker withstood the onslaught with unshakeable strength and tenacity. Needless to add, Wohr Parking Systems are justifiably proud of this automatic car parking system project.

Features of automatic car parking systems

- A combination of stacking and moving cars closer together

- Uses state of the art servo drives and electronic guidance systems

- Typical parking time is 1 minute

- Horizontal pallets in each level optimises parking and retrieval time

- Modular construction to suit space availability at site

- Requires constant power supply

Advantages of automatic car parking systems

- Parking space i.e. depth, width and height reduced substantially since there is no opening of doors or humans allowed near the parked vehicle. This compacts even more cars in less space

- Can be constructed and operational faster than traditional parking lots

- Can extend up to 50 levels height

- Easy operation with several control options, e.g. transponder chip or remote control

- Site security: with a variety of transponder form factors that can be mounted on or within the vehicle, people can enter a secured area without opening a door or a window to obtain authorization.

- No expensive ventilation and lighting system needed

- No ramps or driving lanes

- Less accidents

- Security from thefts and car damage

- Runs smoothly, swiftly and quietly

- Easier for specially abled people

- Cost-effective technology

- Eliminates the need for parking attendants

- Can be installed indoors or outdoors; above ground or underground

- Suitable for car rentals, car service centres, multiplex, shopping mall, office buildings, industries, educational institutes, residential buildings, etc.

FDI INVESTMENT IN INDIAN RETAIL INUDSTRY. DO WE NEED MULTI-BRAND RETAIL IN INDIA?

It’s been a long wait for global retail giants like Wal-Mart, Tesco, Carrefour and others to set up shop in India. As the winter session started on 22nd November, the ruling party of India decided to lift the ban on big-box retailers’ investment in multi brand FDI. Soon the topic raised the political storm in the Parliament with several other issues like including price rise, separate Telangana and safety of Mullaperiyar dam and more.

Market Views

The BJP announced that it would not allow foreign MNCs to set shop in states ruled by it. At the same time, BJP admitted it had first proposed the full opening up of the retail trade sector nearly a decade ago in May 2002. In a note for a group of ministers on FDI chaired by the then finance minister Yashwant Sinha, the ministry of commerce and industry under DMK’s Murasoli Maran recommended permitting 100 per cent FDI in retail trade, subject to a minimum capitalisation of $10 million in 2002. BSP chief and UP Chief Minister Mayawati, AIADMK supremo and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, BJD chief and Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik and Trinamool chief and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee are also opposed to the FDI move.

CII supported FDI in multi-brand retailand stated that it would go a long-way in boosting confidence would give a boost to the organised retail sector which positively impacts several stakeholders including farmers, MSMEs and consumers. CII noted that Foreign investments in the sector would not affect the traditional trade (Kirana shops), and it would continue to grow.

SURVEY QUESTIONS

DART Views

What is FDI in Multi Brand Retail? FDI in Multi Brand retail implies that a retail store with a foreign investment can sell multiple brands under one roof. Now, the global retailers can come to India with a local partner and can set up stores. Till now FDI was not allowed in multi brand retail.

Organized Retailing

The organized retailing can negotiate prices more aggressively with manufacturers and pass on the benefit to consumers. They can lay down better and tighter quality standards and ensure that manufacturers adhere to them. With the availability of finance, the supermarkets can invest in much better infrastructure facilities like parking lots, coffee shops, ATM machines, etc., and all this will make shopping a pleasant experience. The supermarkets offer a wide range of products and services, so the consumer can enjoy single-point shopping.

The organized retail could help tackle inflation, particularly with wholesale prices. This is underscored by the fact that the weight of food in rural and agricultural household consumption baskets is approximately 65-70%.

Kiranas – Mom and Pop Stores of India & Existing Retailers

Indian retailing is generally known as Kiranas, the Desi Mom and Pop shops. According to a report from National Sample Survey Organization, the retail sector is the second largest employer in India – employs 7.2% of the total workforce roughly around 3.4 crore jobs (34 million) just after agriculture which employs nearly 60% of total workforce. There is not any specific data about the number of people employed under Kirana shops in major cities. Obviously, the Kirana jobs are not an important vocation in major cities compared to small places where Kirana is plays as a nerve centre of village supply chain. The Kirana retail segment survives based on the price difference between wholesale and retail market. This price difference shared at different points in the supply chain. Ultimately, this cost is passed on to the consumer who ends up in paying higher price for products. Thus, around 34 million jobs are generated on account of this price differences at various points of the supply chain.

The media report mentions that the entry of foreign players will most definitely disrupt the current balance of the economy, and will cost the above 3.4 crore jobs. It is a fact that Kirana shops in places other than major cities will enjoy built-in protection from supermarkets because the latter can only exist in large cities. The concern by domestic firms in the organized retail sector as an infant industry cannot be taken in its face value since many of the retailers have already stabilized in major cities.

As of now, the current status of organized retailing in India is much better than its position compared to year 2002. As per A.T. Kearney Global Retail Development Index (GRDI) India stands fourth position in terms of top 30 emerging countries for retail development which is an indication of higher opportunities.

Advantages of the Policy of Allowing Multi Brand FDI in Retail Sector

The global retailer will play a big role in sourcing several consumer goods from India for wider internationalmarkets. India certainly has an advantage of being able to produce several categories of consumer goods, viz. fruits and vegetables, beverages, textiles and garments, gems and jewellery, and leather goods. By allowing FDI in retail trade, India will become more integrated with regional and global economies in terms of quality standards and consumer expectations. In effect if the global retailer finds that onion can be sourced for 10 cents per KG or sauce can be bought for 10 cents per sachet then Indian onion/sauce will move globally. Thus, a major beneficiary would be farmers and small manufacturers, who will gain substantially through some of the best-practices of international retail companies. Thus, the traditional Indian farmers will get better remuneration and this will ultimately lead them to modernise agri-retail marketplace. This will improve the life of 60% of Indians who depend on farming, and 100% Indian consumers at the cost of a small percentage of existing Kriana shops in major cities.

Indian Government recommends that retail firms source a percentage of manufactured products from the small and medium domestic enterprises. The opening up of the retail sector to FDI could therefore provide a boost to small-and medium enterprises. At the juncture government can go for bringing safety nets in the form of strengthening the marketing of the products sold by small retailers/Kiranas, the provision of soft loans, and setting up a central logistics system to act on behalf of the small retailers.

Also it is to be watched with the rising salary pattern of Indian employees if the global retailer can compete with the existing retail chains which have already established in major cities. The rising operating cost in the organized retailing and the rising wages of employees will give smiley face to Kiranas to bring innovative methods and float in the competitive market with its inborn low cost operations and long working hours. Kiranas get an opportunity to enhance their customer proposition through steps like adding new product lines and brands, better display, renovation of the store, introduction of self service, enhanced home delivery, more credit sales, and acceptance of credit cards.

Wal-Mart has the history of exiting from Germany (2006) and from South Korea (2006) both under difficulties. Carrefour which set up shop in Russia even failed to sell its Russian assets after it decided to abandon its operations in the country in 2010. If Indian retailers are equipped to meet the challenges the incoming global retailers, their entry will just remain as another competitor in the market and an opportunity for innovation for ingenious Kirana shops. These types of competition will be negligible for existing retailers taking into account of India’s market size and the purchasing power of its growing middle class. Moreover, country has successfully opened up its telecom and banking sector for investment and consumers have experienced such benefits already.
