In early January, Bob Poteete joined Nasser Heavy Equipment as the company’s service manager. He also is taking on responsibilities for all government sales.

With more than 40 years in the heavy equipment business, Poteete began his career at Yancy Bros. Co. working in the service department. Poteete grew in the industry, moving into equipment sales and operating his own used equipment and parts company for 15 years. Poteete’s resume also includes service manager experience at Midco Southern, WW Williams and TRAX Inc.

Before joining the company, Poteete was selling service trucks. After speaking for months with Nasser, owner of Nasser Heavy Equipment, Poteete decided that the dealership is where he needs to be.

“Nasser is a man of honesty and integrity, and he has tremendous knowledge of the heavy equipment industry,” said Poteete. “If he says he’s going to do something, he does it. These qualities have earned him a lot of respect in this business, and I feel that this is the person I need to be working with.”

Based in Lawrenceville, GA, Nasser Heavy Equipment Inc. is a full service Hyundai, Sakai and Eager Beaver dealer as well as a high volume used equipment sales and rental outlet.
