The company was founded in 1884 by Yataro Iwasaki through the takeover of a state shipbuilding business. In 1934, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries was created, which was then the largest privately owned company in Japan through the manufacture of ships, heavy machinery, aircraft and trains. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries is currently divided into 13 divisions and is one of the world's largest companies.

In 1970, the production of forklifts began. In 1982, MCFE was formed as a collaboration between Mitsubishi Heavy Industries LTD and Caterpillar Industrial Inc to combine Japanese manufacturing technology with US know-how in forklift marketing.
Today, there is a global coverage of production and sales of forklifts through the four companies MCFE in Europe, MCFA in North and South America, MCFS in Singapore and MHI in Japan.
