At ProMat in 2019 in Chicago, Yale Materials Handling Corporation will highlight a comprehensive lineup of innovative solutions at Booth S3603, designed to help future-proof operations and disrupt the status quo in today’s fast-changing supply chain landscape. ProMat takes place 8-11 April at McCormick Place.
