Modern Equipment & Supply will represent the Mustang line of compact dirt and mini-excavation equipment in its territories of eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Mustang, a division of Manitou Group, manufactures a selection of compact loaders, made in America — and offers a complete line of compact excavators.

These machines cover a wide assortment of application types and includes the largest capacity, true vertical lift skid steer loader on the market. Modern’s customers also will have access to the full line of Manitou rough terrain telescopic handler products and Gehl wheel loaders.

“We are excited to have a partner in Manitou Group which shares our core beliefs of quality, value and integrity,” said Rick Nelson, vice president and general manager of Modern Equipment & Supply. “The Mustang line’s legendary reliability, solid product support capabilities and low cost of ownership bring an excellent value proposition to the end user.”

Nelson added: “We saw an opportunity [when deciding to carry this line] to increase brand awareness for a product that deserves it.”

“We are proud to enter into a partnership with Modern Equipment,” said Eric Burkhammer, eastern regional sales manager of Manitou Americas Inc. “Working together with Modern Equipment, we will ensure that equipment owners and operators have the best products and support to advance everyone’s performance to its maximum potential.”

Interested customers can contact Bob Pelouze at 609/685-4581 to arrange demonstrations of Mustang, Gehl and Manitou equipment at their job site by a Modern representative. Parts for all equipment will be available through Modern Central Parts at 800/494-9596.
