Applied Machinery Sales (AMS), an importer and distributor of Telehandlers and Rotos Merlo in the USA, has opened a second location in Olathe, Kansas. This site will offer the full range of Merlo and Rotos telescopic handlers.
In recent years, sales and rentals for Merlo Telehandlers and Rotos have increased significantly. This increase in activity led AMS to invest in the opening of its second location in the Midwest.
“We have many end users and resellers in the Midwest and West Coast who will benefit greatly from this second AMS location,” said Garth McGillewie, president of AMS. “Similar to our headquarters in Rock Hill, South Carolina, this location will provide direct sales, services and assist with reseller inquiries.”
Ed Burchett and Blake Barker will manage this location. Both offer extensive experience in the construction and lifting industry.
“This central location is a commitment to our resellers and end users that we are here as partners, as they rely on Merlo telescopic handlers to conduct their daily negotiations,” said Burchett. “We are here to educate, support and ensure that they enjoy safety and efficient operation of our equipment. We look forward to meeting everyone. “
