Robert H. Finke & Sons, headquartered in Selkirk, N.Y., has been designated the official Kleemann dealer for parts of eastern New York State and western Vermont.

To support its expansion into the aggregate markets, Matthew Goedeke has been named aggregate specialist. Goedeke grew up around construction equipment and for a brief time after graduating college worked at a local highway department.

In 2011, Goedeke started working in the sales department for a local equipment dealer and over the last eight years has honed his skills of being able to size up the right piece of equipment to satisfy the needs and challenges of his heavy equipment customers.

"Four years ago, I got my first exposure to aggregate crushing and screening equipment and from the first time I laid eyes on portable crushers and screeners I knew that I wanted to be a part of that industry," Goedeke said. "What I appreciate the most about Kleemann is their technology. An intricate, advanced machine, that at first can be very intimidating but much like your first experience with an iPhone, it's not long before you are operating it with ease.

"I recently finished Level 1 Kleemann sales training at Wirtgen USA headquarters in Nashville. We currently have a Kleemann MC110 jaw crusher, as well as a MS 703 EVO track mounted screening plant, and an MS15 Z track mounted screening plant in our rental fleet."

Kleemann, a member of the Wirtgen Group, is the manufacturer of one of the most advanced portable crushing and screening plants in the world. Recognized not only for its advanced engineering, Kleemann also carries with it a reputation for quality construction, according to the manufacturer.

The Kleemann crushers and screeners are manufactured with the same pride and workmanship that the other members of the Wirtgen Group are recognized for, including the Wirtgen milling machines, Vogele pavers and Hamm compaction equipment.

Robert H. Finke & Sons also is the authorized dealer in its sales territory for the other products manufactured by the Wirtgen Group. The territory for the Wirtgen Group includes in New York State the following counties: Essex, Hamilton, Warren, Washington, Fulton, Saratoga, Montgomery, Schoharie, Rensselaer, Albany, Greene, Columbia and Schenectady; and in Vermont: Franklin, Chittenden, Addison, Rutland and Bennington.
