Mecalac Continues Growing North American Network with Three More Dealers
Mecalac, a leading global designer, manufacturer and distributor of compact construction equipment for urban environments, welcomes three new North American dealers to its growing network. The new dealers both solidify Mecalac’s presence in the Northeast as well as expand the company’s reach across the Midwest. With these appointments, Mecalac’s dealer network now covers more than 30 states across the continental United States and seven Canadian provinces to offer increased access and customer support for existing customers in the utility, construction, landscaping and recycling industries.
“Our expanding dealer network reflects our commitment to supporting customers with our innovative solutions throughout North America,” said Peter Bigwood, general manager for Mecalac North America. “We are meticulous in our selection of dealers to ensure each one shares our philosophy of providing customers with top-tier products and service.”
RJV Equipment will help with sales and service for contractors throughout middle and northeast Tennessee. Serving Tennessee since 2010, this dealer sells and rents construction equipment and provides parts and service support for a variety of industries from locations in Knoxville and Nashville.
Helping connect Mecalac with contractors on Long Island and New York City is All Island Equipment. Located in West Babylon, N.Y., this family-owned business celebrates 54 years of experience providing contractors with quality construction equipment backed by an unsurpassed commitment to customer satisfaction.
The EquipmentShare subsidiary Victor L. Philips Co., located in Kansas City, Mo., will expand Mecalac’s coverage in the Midwest with five locations throughout Kansas and northwest Missouri. Celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2011, the heavy equipment company specializes in offering equipment sales and service through a hands-on approach to customer satisfaction.
Mecalac continues to support dealers with the tools they need to provide outstanding service to customers who are searching for innovative solutions for their most challenging jobsites.
