The Business

Stacatruc is a nationwide forklift and materials handling solutions provider, supporting businesses across the UK with equipment, fleet management and engineering services. As the UK’s main distributor for CLARK Forklifts, Stacatruc combines manufacturer-backed expertise with the flexibility of an independent, multi-brand materials handling specialist.

With over 40 years of industry experience, Stacatruc provides new and used forklift sales, short and long-term hire, fleet solutions, planned maintenance, breakdown support, operator training and advanced fleet telematics. Its independent, multi-brand approach enables customers to access equipment and support tailored to their operational requirements.

The business supports customers ranging from individual sites to complex, multi-site operations, combining a substantial equipment fleet with nationwide engineering coverage and an expanding network of regional locations. Its fleet management solutions help clients  standardise equipment and support across multiple sites, while its GemOne-powered telematics capability provides greater visibility of utilisation, safety, maintenance and fleet performance.

Since YFM’s investment in 2024, Stacatruc has continued to expand its geographical reach and service capabilities, strengthening its position as an independent national partner for businesses looking to buy, hire, manage and maintain their materials handling equipment.

“YFM’s backing has enabled us to accelerate our plans for Stacatruc, both geographically and in the range of services we can offer our customers. We’re building a stronger national operation while retaining the responsiveness, independence and customer focus that have always been central to the business. As we continue to grow, our focus remains simple: giving customers the equipment, expertise and support they need to keep their operations moving.”
