Takeuchi announced JPS Equipment Rental as its newest dealer serving areas in Louisiana and Arkansas. JPS has two authorized Takeuchi branches in Louisiana, including locations in Monroe and El Dorado, Ark. JPS will carry the full line of Takeuchi compact earthmoving equipment, including compact excavators, compact track loaders, compact wheel loaders and skid-steer loaders. JPS also serves the rental business in Bossier City and Alexandria, La.
JPS is a family-owned construction equipment rental company founded by Paul Bullock in 2013. In addition to earthmoving equipment, JPS offers aerial equipment, generators, compressors, compaction equipment, welding, all-terrain vehicles and more.
“JPS Equipment Rental has built a great reputation in the areas they serve for their customer loyalty, value and expanded product offering,” said Kim Robinson, Takeuchi director of sales. “They have done a tremendous job of marketing their name throughout different avenues like social medial and their exception service has allowed them to grow in a relatively short period of time. JPS has all the values we look for in a dealer and we know that it will be a good partnership for years to come.”
“We very much look forward to working with Takeuchi and providing our customers with additional options out on the jobsite,” added Stephen Bullock, JPS equipment rental general manager.
