MEMPHIS, TN — Heavy Machines LLC announces that they recently began breaking ground for a new location in Piperton, Tennessee. The facility will sit on a six-acre lot and will house both their corporate team and the staff and operations of their current Memphis branch. They recently hosted a groundbreaking ceremony, with employees and company leaders, customers, and members of the community attending. The new facility is expected to be completed within a year.

“We are very happy to begin the construction of our brand new location,” said Gus Wilson, CFO at Heavy Machines LLC. “Equipped with the latest technology and more space, this facility will allow us to serve our customers in the Memphis area even better. It was great to see such a large turnout at our groundbreaking event. Everyone is excited and looking forward to construction and completion of the project.”

The event featured local food, and a speech was given by Wilson. Several Liebherr and Link-Belt machines were displayed, including Link-Belt’s Diggin’ for a Cure Pink-Belt 145 X4 excavator. The Pink-Belt machine is a 15.2 metric ton hydraulic excavator that is painted pink to show support for breast cancer awareness. It was en route to an equipment show in Las Vegas and stopped by Heavy Machine’s event on the way.

Heavy Machines LLC has been providing equipment and support for their customers since 1971. They are an authorized dealer for Liebherr, Link-Belt, Hitachi, Tana, Sakai, Dynapac, Diamond Z, and numerous other heavy equipment brands.
