Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?

Hi, I'm Ciaran and I'm the founder of Machinery Partner. We make it easy to buy new heavy equipment used in the construction, demolition, and recycling industry, direct from the manufacturer.

Right now we're focusing on crushing and screening equipment and targeting small to medium-sized contracting businesses in the US, that are overlooked by machinery dealers due to their smaller deal sizes. Mind you, when I say smaller deal sizes, the average value of our deals right now is around $200k!

Last month, we sold just under $500k of machinery, including a crusher that had never been sold into the US market before. This is really significant for us because our customers generally like to go and see a machine working before they purchase one themselves. The fact that we were able to push the first of these machines to one of our customers is helping us to build a really strong case that contractors are willing to buy these machines...
