Gregory and Timothy Blackwood began G & B Lift Truck in the late seventies as a small forklift service shop. "In June, approximately one year after I started, we hired two other people, we purchased two new vans, we leased space in a warehouse and we took that giant step if you will." said Greg Blackwood, President of Fraza Forklifts Through the vision and determination of its leaders and their commitment to providing superior customer service, G B continued to grow. For the first five years in business, Gregs and Tims company focused on servicing equipment and selling parts over the counter. When a major forklift manufacturer approached G B Lift Truck about representing its product, Greg and Tim embraced the chance to expand their business. G B Lift Truck was now a full-service dealer servicing Southeastern Michigan with new and used forklifts, rental forklifts, as well as parts and service. Throughout the years, Greg and Tim continued to grow their company by augmenting the product line, increasing their sales staff, continuing to increase the number of companies serviced by the company, and acquiring forklift dealerships. Today, Fraza Forklifts is a full-service material handling dealership servicing East Michigan with five branches and a dedicated, highly-skilled team of 200 employees.
