Takeuchi-US has added Dykes Equipment as a new dealer in Baxley, Georgia.
Dykes Equipment (dba Appling Motors) will serve South Georgia and specializes in new and used equipment. The dealership will carry Takeuchi excavators, skid steer loaders, compact track loaders, and wheel loaders.
Appling Motors has been in business for more 50 years, originally selling vehicles before transitioning to a tractor sales and service location. Owner Gary Dykes began working there in 1995 before purchasing the company in 2005, reforming it to Dykes Equipment Co. Inc. dba Appling Motors.
“With the products and programs offered by Takeuchi, we expect to be able to expand our customer base in addition to offering dealer-owned rental fleet options in the region,” said Dykes in a prepared statement. “Our location on a main road through Baxley with roof-covered display areas allows us to showcase Takeuchi as a premier product, while also protecting units from harsh weather conditions.”
Kim Robinson, director of dealer development at Takeuchi, said in a statement:
“We are very excited to start work with Appling Motors, which shows a great aptitude for growing its business. Appling Motors has been around for decades and is very reputable throughout South Georgia. We know they will do a great job with our machines.”
