We're pleased to now offer their equipment at two of our Minnesota locations, and we expect our customers there will quickly come to appreciate the difference a Takeuchi machine can make on their productivity and profitability."

General Equipment & Supplies was founded in 1984 by four former employees of General Diesel and Equipment Co.

Since its beginnings with a single location and 22 employees, General Equipment & Supplies has grown to employ more than 300 people across 10 United States branches, as well as three locations in Canada.

"General Equipment has always strived to provide the best products and back them up with outstanding customer support," said Shay Klusmeyer, central/western United States division sales manager of Takeuchi-US.
