Industry Roundup: Four Dealerships Rebrand Under National Equipment Dealers

National Equipment Dealers (NED), which has grown to 14 locations in four states since being established in 2018, has rebranded four dealerships it acquired in the past few years.

Now operating as NED are Four Seasons Equipment in Texas, MAY-RHI in the Carolinas, Richardson Services 1991 in South Carolina and Earthmovers Construction Equipment in Florida.

“With this change, we will have much cleaner messaging and improved brand recognition as we continue to grow,” says Corey Rogers, NED vice president of marketing. 

In addition, NED announced that it has acquired Grove River Machinery in the Savannah, Georgia, area, which will also operate as NED. “Our merger with NED will provide us the means to grow our Hyundai market share way beyond our past capabilities,” says Dale Richbourg, former Grove Machinery sales manager, who is continuing on the NED team.

Established by Ken Richbourg 20 years ago, Grove River Machinery has represented the Hyundai product line for 14 years. The new NED Savannah branch will add Bell articulated trucks to its offering. “As fellow Hyundai dealers, we have known the Richbourg family and Grove River Machinery for many years,” says Mitch Nevins, NED CEO. “The timing is right and we are excited to bring them into the NED family.”
