Eagle Power and Equipment, headquartered in Montgomeryville, Pa., has announced the appointment of Jeremy Hillegass as the new operations manager of the company’s Uwchlan Township branch.

The Uwchlan store, located in Eagle, Pa., just off Route 100 north of the Downingtown exit of the Pennsylvania Turnpike, serves customers in Chester, Delaware and western Montgomery counties.

Hillegass began his career with Eagle Power and Equipment in March 2001 as a yard person. He was promoted to mechanic and later was named rental manager.

On April 16, 2007, he took over as operations manager of the Uwchlan branch, which recently was named a Kubota construction dealership.

He was trained in auto, diesel and industrial repair and will use his diverse experience to grow Eagle Power’s business in the Philadelphia area’s western suburbs.

“I am really looking forward to having Kubota join our Case, Takeuchi, Liebherr and Astec equipment lines. We are experiencing a real building boom in our area and this full service store is right in the hub of all the activity. Our customers can come here for their parts, service and rental needs,” said Hillegass.
