Bottom Line Equipment broke ground recently on a new branch in Sulphur, La. The new facility is being built on I-10 frontage property next to its current satellite operation, which was opened in 2012.
Bottom Line, founded by Kurt Degueyter, celebrated 10 years in business this past July. Based in St. Rose, La., Bottom Line also has branches in Baytown and Baton Rouge, La., and an accounting and administration office in Lafayette. It has a fleet of more than 1,100 machines and specialty attachments, mostly in heavy earthmoving equipment. Bottom Line services the construction industry as well as energy, industrial, petrochemical, demolition, infrastructure and commercial projects along the Gulf Coast.
The ground-breaking ceremony was attended by Sulphur mayor Chris Duncan and several chamber of commerce members, as well as representatives from the architecture firm that designed the new facility and the general contractor for the project.
Bottom Line expects the new facility to be completed in May 2017. The facility will be more than 28,000 square feet, with more than 10,000 square feet of sales and administrative offices and more than 17,000 square feet of shop and warehouse space with energy-efficient technologies, the company said.
