GENESIS APPOINTS NEW DEALERS

Genesis Attachments, Superior, Wis., has announced that Hoffman Equipment in Piscataway, N.J., and S.E.S. Equipment in Chicago have joined the Genesis dealer network.

The appointments are important from a geographic and strategic standpoint, according to Mark Ramun, director of business development for Genesis Attachments.

"In growing this network we have been looking for dealers that not only know the scrap and demolition markets, but also appreciate the benefits attachments can provide toward growing these markets," he says. "Both S.E.S. and Hoffman fully support that concept and have already shown the potential for growth they bring to the network."

S.E.S. sells primarily to businesses within the Chicago area, reaching 17 counties in Illinois and four in northwest Indiana. Hoffman Equipment serves customers in northern New Jersey, the metropolitan area of New York City and Long Island.

Genesis Attachments, which is a Paladin company, manufactures attachments for use in demolition, scrap processing, reconstruction, utility and waste handling operations.
