Jining Hot Machinery Co., Ltd. announced today the successful closure of a landmark export agreement with LogiBrasil S.A., a top-tier logistics operator headquartered in São Paulo. Under the deal, Hot Machinery will deliver 200 units of its HOT-3.5T electric forklifts—featuring 3.5-ton capacity, AC drive technology, and fast-charging lithium batteries—to support LogiBrasil’s warehouse automation upgrade across five major distribution centers.
The order follows a three-month trial period during which Hot Machinery’s machines demonstrated superior performance in high-humidity tropical conditions and 24/7 shift operations. “Reliability and total cost of ownership were decisive factors,” said Carlos Mendes, Procurement Director at LogiBrasil. “These forklifts consume 30% less energy than our previous diesel models and require minimal maintenance.”
To ensure seamless integration, Jining Hot Machinery provided on-site operator training and established a local spare parts depot in partnership with a São Paulo-based service provider. The first batch of 80 units has already been shipped via Qingdao Port and is expected to arrive in Santos by mid-March.
“This deal validates our ‘China Quality, Global Service’ approach,” said Li Na, International Sales Manager at Hot Machinery. “Latin America is a priority market for us, and we’re investing in localized support to build long-term partnerships.”
The company plans to showcase its full range of electric material handling equipment at the upcoming FENATRAN 2026 logistics expo in São Paulo this May.
