Established in 1983, Hawthorne Plant and Vehicles quickly established a reputation as being a leading supplier of machinery providing businesses and forklift dealers around the globe with quality used forklift trucks and plant machinery.

Over the years the business grew and in 2016 we rebranded, and Hawthorne Fork Truck Services was born.
