What to look for in a forklift supplier in the UAE
When choosing a forklift supplier in the UAE, buyers should check: local stock and lead time (machines available in the UAE rather than on long import), after-sales service and spare-parts support, CE certification and build quality, the breadth of the range (so one supplier can cover forklifts, reach trucks, stackers and access equipment), and whether the supplier offers both sales and rental. A local UAE base, ideally in a logistics hub like JAFZA, means faster delivery and easier servicing.
Two brands, one UAE supplier
ARAS supplies its own ARAS Handling Equipment line of electric forklifts, reach trucks, articulated and VNA forklifts, stackers, pallet trucks and scissor lifts. As the authorised UAE distributor of Soosung, ARAS also supplies the South Korean brand’s electric reach stackers, tow tractors, pallet stackers and related equipment: see the Soosung product range. This means UAE customers can source own-brand value equipment and premium Soosung machines from a single accountable supplier.
