JESCO held an open house April 7 at its headquarters in South Plainfield, N.J., showcasing LeeBoy pavers. LeeBoy also provided seminars on paver operation and maintenance throughout the event.

“We are very proud of our roadbuilding and maintenance product line and felt that an open house was the best way to show our customers first hand the range of LeeBoy pavers and other roadbuilding and maintenance equipment we offer,” said Emilio Pescatore, sales manager of JESCO. “It was also a great opportunity to meet with our customers one-on-one, show them our facility and provide them with a paving operation and maintenance best practices seminar.”

JESCO had a variety of roadbuilding and maintenance products on display, such as all LeeBoy pavers, Bomag rollers, a John Deere 332D skid steer with a cold planer attachment, a John Deere 329D CTL with a sweeper broom attachment, a John Deere 310J backhoe and a variety of ROSCO products.

Jim Harkins, LeeBoy’s northeast territory manager, who has been with the company for 10 years, was present and very busy throughout the event, giving a number of seminars to attendees interested in LeeBoy products. Harkins provided in-depth tips and techniques for proper paver operation, such as screed and conveyor adjustments and maintenance tips that help prevent downtime on the job.

Harkins also met with JESCO customers who have recently purchased LeeBoy pavers and scheduled one-on-one paver operation and maintenance training sessions that will take place on their next paving project.

“Hosting a paving specific open house exemplifies JESCO’s continued commitment to the asphalt paving industry,” said Harkins. “I look forward to working with JESCO’s sales representatives and customers in the field.”

Throughout the event, a barbeque style lunch was served. In addition, a number of items such as hats, t-shirts, pens and pads were packaged in a JESCO canvas bag and given to guests.

“We are pleased that so many of our customers were able to attend the event and meet one of our vendors one-on-one,” said Pescatore. “This event was another step to build upon our customer, dealer and vendor relationships.”
