Doggett Cranes Services will operate three Link-Belt locations in Louisiana, including headquarters in Baton Rouge, with branches in Lake Charles and Shreveport.

Skeeter Collins, North American Sales Manager Link-Belt Construction Equipment Co., announced the appointment of Doggett Crane Services as the authorized Link-Belt crane distributor for Louisiana.

Doggett began primarily as a John Deere Construction and Forestry dealer in Louisiana, growing their operation into what is now one of the largest John Deere dealership groups in North America. Today, Doggett is positioned as the premier construction and forestry related equipment and service provider in Louisiana.

"Link-Belt's crane offering continues to be well positioned for the Louisiana crane market. Their reputation both in terms of production and service were key in our decision to team up with them in this area," said Leslie Doggett, owner. Doggett continued, "The good folks at Doggett tenaciously strive to be the service and support supplier of choice to heavy equipment users and now, crane users, throughout the State of Louisiana. That is, to provide repair and maintenance services on all competitive brands on a guaranteed and measureable basis which, in the end, allows the end user to spend more of his time on his direct business requirements/needs while allowing Doggett to become his trusted equipment specialist/partner. Doggett separates itself from the crowd with these unique/guaranteed/on-time services and high quality repairs which, in the end, creates real, meaningful, and measureable value for our coveted customers/partners."

Doggett Cranes Services will operate three Link-Belt locations in Louisiana, including headquarters in Baton Rouge, with branches in Lake Charles and Shreveport.

"We are excited that Doggett is representing us in the state of Louisiana, their business model is a perfect match to what Link-Belt expects in a crane dealer. Doggett is making a strong commitment to dedicate crane people for the crane business. Louisiana crane owners will benefit from the Doggett "Get things done" philosophy," said Collins.

Louisiana cranes customers can contact Doggett Cranes Services for sales, service and parts needs beginning Monday, July 18, at 1-225-291-3750.
