Shoppa’s gives a lift to CANstruction

Listen to this article

Shoppa’s Material Handling, one of the largest Toyota forklift distributors in the nation with corporate headquarters in Dallas-Fort Worth and branch locations throughout North Texas and Kansas City, MO., was the proud forklift sponsor for CANstruction® Dallas 2018, donating four Toyota forklifts throughout the event held Sept. 8-23.

CANstruction Dallas, hosted at NorthPark Center, is a unique annual design build competition, consisting of 24 teams from local architecture, design, engineering and construction companies, aimed at wiping out hunger in the North Texas area. CANstruction competitions are held all over the U.S. every year to benefit their local communities.

The teams created gravity-defying structures out of a total of 120,000+ cans of food,  which are donated to the North Texas Food Bank to help them in their mission to help close the hunger gap in the North Texas area. This year’s theme was “Oh the places we CAN go.”
