Tom Barry started Barry Equipment in 1985, and the company has been a Doosan dealer since 2004. According to Operations Manager Joe Barry, it was natural for the company to add a new branch in Connecticut and grow the company’s presence in the Northeast.
“We really enjoy working with our clients in Connecticut, and we just felt that adding another brick-and-mortar location would give us a stronger foothold to provide easier access for our current customer base and help build our relationships with new customers in the area,” Joe said.
Barry Equipment sells Doosan articulated dump trucks; crawler excavators, wheel excavators, and mini excavators; wheel loaders; log loaders; and material handlers. The dealership also offers machine rentals and parts to provide its customers with a full-service experience. In 2020 the company expanded its maintenance offering with new field service vehicles including a mobile lubrication truck for in-the-field machine fluid changes.
According to Joe, the new location will be a “full-service dealership with over-the-counter part sales. There’ll be a service center, new inventory on display, and a full sales team. Anything and everything that you could need at a dealership will be offered there.” The company plans to add an additional 5,000 square feet of space to the building in 2022.

“We are excited for Tom and Joe Barry and the employees of Barry Equipment as they add another location,” said Adam Howard, Regional Director, Doosan Infracore North America.
“Barry Equipment is a top-performing Doosan dealer and has built a loyal customer base in their area,” Howard said. “We expect their new location to cement their footprint even more in the construction industry.”
This is the third Barry Equipment location that offers Doosan equipment. The other two facilities are located in Webster, Massachusetts.
