Our mission

Reliable, long-term materials handling solutions

Founded in 2002, Niketrans Targonca Kft. is a 100% Hungarian-owned company that deals exclusively in forklifts and lifting equipment. Our mission is to offer reliable, long-term and comprehensive logistics solutions to any industry – and to do so we provide high-performance Cat® forklifts, expertise and a high degree of flexibility.

Our staff gained their decades of professional experience first in the forklift plant of the Nitrokémia industrial estate in Balatonfűzfő and then at Nike Trans Kft. The company was founded by four Hungarian private individuals, and the ownership has remained unchanged ever since. The owners' philosophy is to reinvest profits in the business for continuous development – without borrowing, on a stable financial footing.

Over the past decades we have grown into one of the leading players in the Hungarian materials handling market: we work with some 1,000 partner companies, nearly 3,000 forklifts fall within our sphere of interest, and the combined revenue of our companies exceeds HUF 6.5 billion. Beyond the expertise of our colleagues, our greatest strengths are reliability, flexibility and customer focus.

Scythian lifting power – raising the bar!
