This complex business has significant growth opportunities due to the continued development of new equipment, as well as the need to repair and upgrade older equipment and machinery. Our European owned subsidiary clients often design and manufacture high end and cutting edge equipment for very specific applications, (sometimes even customized – made to order equipment), in the areas of manufacturing, industrial, agricultural, to name a few.

Capital Equipment often represents large items that a company installs in its facilities for operational purposes. This includes items of greater value that need to be designated as a fixed asset of the business which often require special sales techniques, including leasing arrangements, service and parts agreements, and extended warranty periods.
