Oshkosh Corporation, a leading innovator of purpose-built vehicles and equipment, announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire AUSACORP S.L., a privately held international company and manufacturer of wheeled dumpers, rough terrain forklifts, and telehandlers for the construction, material handling, agriculture, landscape, and specialty equipment industries. Upon closing, AUSA will become part of the Oshkosh Access segment.
“AUSA’s history of producing high-quality, purpose-built equipment aligns with our Innovate. Serve. Advance. strategy, allowing us to broaden our product offerings in both current and adjacent markets,” says John Pfeifer, Oshkosh Corporation’s president and chief executive officer.
AUSA products will enhance the JLG line of telehandlers, as well as Hinowa tracked dumpers and forklifts to strengthen the Access segment’s portfolio of equipment. The companies began working together through a partner agreement in 2020, with AUSA manufacturing the JLG-branded SkyTrak 3013 compact telehandler. For more, visit www.jlg.com.
