CHARLOTTE, NC (May 28, 2024) – Carolina Handling has been named the 2023 Top Performer of the Year by Modula, Inc., a leading manufacturer of vertical lift modules and automated storage solutions.

An authorized Modula dealer since 2021, Carolina Handling sells, installs and services Modula’s advanced vertical storage and retrieval systems designed to reduce storage space and boost productivity in order picking. Built on the “parts to picker” principle, the automated system has been proven to dramatically increase accuracy, reduce storage space and enhance worker safety and job satisfaction.

“As Carolina Handling continues its evolution from a forklift-only company to a provider of end-to-end integrated warehouse solutions, products like Modula enhance our broad portfolio of equipment and technologies to help companies achieve greater speed, safety, accuracy and efficiency in their operations,” said Carolina Handling Chief Operating Officer Joe Perkins. “In addition to sales and implementation, we continue to add Modula Certified Technicians to provide the same elite level of aftermarket support for automation solutions that we’re known for on the forklift side of material handling.”

Carolina Handling surpassed 91 percent of its sales quota on Modula units in 2023. Also, 13 Carolina Handling Field Service Technicians were certified in the installation and service of the automated storage and retrieval systems, with another 16 in the process of receiving certification. Carolina Handling also stocks Modula parts and has installed a Modula unit for demonstration and training in its customer experience center in Greenville, South Carolina.  

The 2023 Top Performer of the Year award includes a gold award for achieving the highest score in Modula’s Dealer Incentive Program and a bronze award for total units sold.
