As a truly global company, today's Kalmar integrates several strands of industrial heritage from around the world. The story of our terminal tractors began in the town of Ottawa, Kansas, in the 1950s, where a company called Ottawa steel manufactured attachments for farm equipment and introduced the world's first terminal tractor for moving trailers in ports, terminals, warehouses and distribution facilities.

Today, Kalmar is the global leader in the terminal tractor business, and has produced over 85,000 units to date - more than all of its competitors combined. Kalmar Ottawa trucks are known for their quality and reliability, a testament to the dedication and skills of our employees in Ottawa, KS. We have been making every move count in the terminal tractor business for over 65 years. Follow us as we continue the journey.
