Combilift re-qualifies for Deloitte Best Managed Companies Award for 13th consecutive year

Irish manufacturer Combilift has been recognised once again as one of Ireland’s Best Managed Companies by Deloitte, marking its 13th consecutive year receiving the distinction.

The recognition follows a detailed re-qualification process designed to assess organisations across four key performance areas: strategy, culture and commitment, capabilities and innovation, and governance and financials. The process requires previous awardees to demonstrate continued excellence and leadership in a changing global business environment.

According to Deloitte, the programme identifies companies that show sustained strategic focus and operational effectiveness over time.

“The renowned Deloitte international brand Best Managed Companies programme sets a high benchmark, and re-qualifying for the 13th time reinforces our position as a serious global business,” said Martin McVicar. “While we’re known for manufacturing innovative world-class material handling solutions, this recognition also speaks to how we run our business — from our lean operations and customer-focused R&D to our world-class production facility in Monaghan.”

Combilift, founded in Monaghan in 1998, has grown into a major global producer of multidirectional forklifts and material handling solutions. The company’s continued presence on the Best Managed Companies list reflects its long-term focus on innovation, efficiency, and strategic management.

Deloitte’s programme is part of a global network recognising private companies that demonstrate strong business performance and organisational culture. Combilift’s re-qualification underscores its ability to maintain high standards of governance and performance across multiple business cycles.
