“The construction of our new Little Elm location accomplishes several goals,” said ASCO President Steve Wright. “We wanted our customers to recognize our commitment to their businesses in the construction and agriculture equipment markets in North Texas. Second, our new facility will increase our ability to provide the superior level of customer service in sales, rental, parts and service both we and our customer’s desire.”
The Little Elm facility is ASCO’s 24th location and also its largest with a total footprint of 48,800 square feet. The new facility is designed to better serve the growing DFW Metroplex and fill in a geographic gap to serve the North portion of the metroplex and Denton County. The new facility has 15,000 square feet dedicated for sales and rental operations, a 25,000-square-foot service shop including 14 super bays, 5,700 square feet of warehouse, and a 3,000-square-foot outside wash bay area.
"We are so excited that ASCO chose Little Elm and we look forward to a successful partnership as this region continues to grow and develop," said Little Elm Mayor Curtis J. Cornelious.
The team for the project includes Shawn Willis and Acuform Architecture for the project design. Scott Shaheen and Hooker Contracting Company is the General Contractor.
