Encon Equipment announces a new facility in Jeffersonville, Ind., the company’s third location in the region. The Kentucky-based equipment rental, sales, and service company, with rental centers in Lexington and Somerset, Ky., will officially open its new branch in February. This expansion strengthens Encon’s ability to serve the growing demand for equipment rentals in construction, landscaping, forestry, and other industries across Southern Indiana and the Louisville, Ky., metro area.
Encon Equipment is reported to be one of the fastest growing equipment rental companies in the United States.
“We’ve already been delivering for our customers in Southern Indiana and Louisville, but this new facility will take things to the next level,” said Jordan Mitchell, president of Encon. “It’s all about making sure our customers get the best service and the equipment they need, fast.”
The new facility includes a dedicated customer service area, an expanded equipment service department, additional office space and increased inventory capacity to support a wider range of projects.
Meeting customer needs
Encon specializes in equipment rentals for jobs of all sizes, from major construction to smaller site projects. With a rental inventory of more than $35 million, the company is known for providing quick response and wide availability, the company said. As part of this expansion, Encon plans to add more than 20 new employees.
“Our focus has always been on reliability and fast solutions,” said Mitchell. “This new facility ensures we’re always ready to deliver the tools our customers need to keep their projects moving.”
The Jeffersonville facility will be fully completed in February.
