There are six overhead doors which give access to 12 large service bays.

Hub of Innovation, Talent

The location chosen for this milestone event is strategically positioned alongside a tech school, offering immense recruitment potential. The company recognizes the importance of this strategic partnership with the nearby educational institution and aims to leverage this advantage to tap into a pool of talented individuals.

By situating the facility near an educational institution focused on technology-related courses, the company aims to attract fresh talent and foster innovation. This strategic placement not only benefits the company's growth but also helps bridge the gap between academia and industry.

The presence of the tech school ensures a steady stream of potential employees, specifically those with relevant knowledge and skills in construction technologies.

Collaboration, Innovation: Boosting Future Growth

The construction sector is no stranger to the need for advanced equipment and technology. The new facility represents a significant upgrade, enabling the company to offer construction equipment, parts and services to its clients. This move marks a crucial step forward, allowing the company to remain competitive in an ever-evolving industry.

The construction industry is rapidly evolving, with technology playing an increasingly pivotal role.
