MEC Names New Sales Representation

January 18, 2008 • MEC Aerial Work Platforms, Selma, Calif., has announced Ray Hayles MFG Sales as its new sales representation in Texas and the Southeast.

"This is a tremendous opportunity to increase our presence in a key region that has been historically underrepresented," said Jim Tolle, president of MEC Aerial Work Platforms. "The Ray Hayles organization has a solid track record and is well known and respected for outstanding customer service." 

 

Ray Hayles MFG Sales represents various manufacturers in eight states: Texas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma. This move is strategic for both companies as MEC has announced its intention to enter the self-propelled boom lift market this year, and Ray Hayles MFG Sales has relationships with numerous rental and equipment companies throughout the region.

 

"This alliance will allow both organizations to leverage existing customer relationships and outstanding products that will provide our combined customer base with a full range of access solutions," said Tolle.

 

"This moves our company a giant leap towards achieving our goal of providing a full line of quality powered access equipment to our customers," said Ray Hayles III of Ray Hayles MFG Sales.  "We have been looking to represent a full-line scissor lift manufacturer for several years and MEC provides the most comprehensive range of high quality, U.S.-manufactured scissor lifts available in North America. We are also representing the MEC telehandler line and look forward to tremendous opportunities with MEC's future self-propelled boom products as well."
