EquipmentShare has officially opened its new $3.7 million state-of-the-art facility in Grand Prairie, Texas, with community members and the Grand Prairie Chamber of Commerce in attendance.

The company said the new facility, which was opened in early October, will offer “next-generation equipment solutions and a best-in-class rental experience” thanks to its proprietary technology, T3.

The newly constructed 15,953sqft facility also includes 10 service bays, an equipment wash bay, parts department and a 3,000sqft retail area. The facility shares an equipment yard with the existing building on Roy Orr Boulevard, now serving as a training center and institutional learning hub.

CEO and co-founder of EquipmentShare, Jabbok Schlacks said, “Texas has and will continue to be an important part of our business. Grand Prairie was the third location we opened in our company’s history — so it’s an extra special day to commemorate the new building but also to reaffirm our commitment to invest and grow right here in Texas.”

Grand Prairie general manager James Ferguson added, “This location is the first in a series with our company’s new rental branch look and feel. We offer reliable tech-powered rentals to builders in this community and across the great state of Texas. When they walk into this space, we want them to experience right away that EquipmentShare is the place to go for the best equipment solutions on the planet.

“We also want our team members to be proud of their work home, and we believe this new space accomplishes that while offering plenty of room to grow for years to come.”

EquipmentShare’s presence in Grand Prairie has grown significantly since its opening in 2015, with a total of 22 facilities across Texas.
