Equipment Corporation of America (ECA), a distributor of foundation construction equipment, acquired Pile Equipment of Green Cove Springs, Fla., on Aug. 13, 2015. The acquisition allows ECA to expand its full complement of specialty foundation construction machinery to Florida, Georgia and Alabama.

Pile Equipment had established a reputation as a top local provider of foundation equipment in the southeastern United States since 1987. ECA plans to continue and build upon that tradition by retaining the core team from Pile Equipment including Mike Elliott and Mark Rutland.

“You can now do business with ECA from the North Pole to Key West, Florida,” said Executive Vice President Ben Dutton. “Our goal is to expand upon the Pile Equipment legacy by delivering an even larger and more diverse selection of equipment, tooling and parts, in addition to a more sophisticated level of service to foundation construction contractors in the southeastern United States.”
