Red Rooster Lifting, a leader in lifting solutions, is thrilled to announce a strategic realignment in its ownership and management structure, marking an exciting new chapter in the company’s history.

This shift follows the retirement of longstanding shareholders and directors, who have been instrumental in guiding the company on a stable path of consistent growth for many years.

As they step down, Aquapro, a key member of the Red Rooster Lifting family since 1989, has expanded its shareholding to take on a leading role in the company’s future. Joining them in this new ownership structure is TOKU Pneumatic, Red Rooster Lifting’s main supplier, who has also taken a shareholding position, solidifying a long-standing and productive partnership.

This change in leadership and shareholding has been designed as a proactive move to further strengthen Red Rooster Lifting’s position in a rapidly changing global market.

Managing Director Bill Aitken commented:

“Our vision remains rooted in safety, service quality, and integrity, and this new alignment allows us to sharpen our industry focus, increase our responsiveness, and take on challenges and opportunities with enhanced operational effectiveness.”

Since its inception, Red Rooster Lifting has benefited from a legacy of stability, anchored by an experienced team and strong relationships with suppliers and clients worldwide.

With Aquapro and TOKU Pneumatic’s backing, Red Rooster Lifting now has an even stronger foundation from which to pursue new avenues of growth while retaining the values and standards that have made the company a trusted name in the lifting industry. This seamless transition in ownership brings with it the opportunity to introduce new ways of working, all designed to enhance efficiency, customer satisfaction, and operational excellence.

The new shareholding from TOKU Pneumatic, a world-renowned name in pneumatic equipment, highlights the companies’ shared vision and commitment to innovation.

By aligning more closely with TOKU, Red Rooster Lifting is better positioned to streamline supply chains, optimize product development, and implement industry-leading solutions for clients.

Production Director Paul Shewan said:

“Having TOKU as a shareholder is a significant boost as it reinforces our relationship with a strategic partner whose values align with ours, and who supports our mission to provide industry-leading lifting solutions.”

For Red Rooster Lifting, the new management structure is an affirmation of the company’s strengths and a commitment to sustained growth. A skilled and experienced team remains in place, bringing the same dedication and expertise to their roles as they build upon the company’s core offerings in lifting equipment sales, rentals, and services. 

As Red Rooster Lifting embarks on this new journey, clients and partners can expect the same high standards of service and quality they have always relied upon, coupled with the forward-looking vision and robust support of Aquapro and TOKU Pneumatic.

Together, the companies are committed to ensuring that Red Rooster Lifting remains at the forefront of the industry, ready to meet the demands of an evolving market with a refreshed strategy and a strengthened foundation.
