Van Clarkson, president of Fairchild Equipment, announced a new location in Stevens Point, Wis., opening today.
“We are extremely excited to move into this much larger state-of-the-art facility in Stevens Point,” Clarkson says. “We had long ago outgrown our existing branch and in the process of designing a new one, this amazing building became available, which was almost too good to be true, because it is perfect for our business and will allow for significant future growth as well. I’m confident our employees and customers will be equally blown away by our new digs."
The new facility, which is located off of Highway 10 and Highway J at 6800 Hillcrest Drive in Stevens Point, will be home to a growing team already located in central Wisconsin, replacing the previous location at 5217 Heffron Court. It will add four and a half times the shop space, going from 6,000 square feet of shop space to 27,000. It also offers a 6,000 square foot parts department with a mezzanine, a 30-foot-by-80-foot wash bay, five overhead cranes, a training room and modern conference room and offices.
“This move will allow us to service our customers to our full potential,” says Sam Brundidge, branch manager for the Stevens Point branch. “It will also improve the working environment for our employees who are excited to call this new facility home."
This new facility marks the second facility expansion since 2020 in Fairchild Equipment’s network of locations throughout the Midwest. It will better accommodate the expansive product line Fairchild Equipment offers which includes materials handling, warehouse, construction and agriculture equipment, as well as warehouse systems and storage solutions and fleet management services.
Its diverse line of materials handling equipment brands provide a holistic approach to solving all of organizations’ operational challenges related to moving, stacking and storing materials.
