A Square Forklift is a proudly South African material-handling solutions provider, offering a wide range of forklift sales, rentals, and maintenance services nationwide. Founded in 1998 by Craig Bradford, the company began in Alberton when Craig and his father, Glenn Bradford, identified a growing need for reliable forklift rental services in the South. At the time, both were involved in the family’s construction business, B Square Projects, founded in 1980. The name "B Square" paid homage to the father-son partnership—two Bradfords, squared.Seeing an opportunity to diversify, Craig launched A Square Forklift as a natural evolution of the family’s entrepreneurial spirit. Over the past two decades, the company has grown into a trusted name in the industry, now part of Bidvest Commercial Products (Pty) Ltd.

With core values rooted in integrity, passion, excellence, leadership, and communication, A Square Forklift prides itself on delivering honest service, technical expertise, and best-fit solutions across South Africa. The company supplies a broad selection of equipment from leading brands backed by expert support, nationwide servicing, and a deep commitment to empowerment through its ongoing B-BBEE initiatives.

From humble beginnings to a national footprint, A Square Forklift remains a business built on family, trust, and the drive to keep South Africa’s industries moving.
