“The employees are everything. A lot of
our employees have family members that
work here so it’s very much a family com-
pany,” he said. “They like to let employees
do the work that they do so well and it’s
not that corporate feeling where you’re
just a number.”
The construction equipment industry is
a competitive one, especially in southern
Ontario, Willis said. Customers are faced
with a vast selection of equipment, and
those choices are just increasing as over-
seas companies start to produce and mar-
ket their own brands. “Back even 10 years
ago, the only people that made this type of
equipment were the older companies that
always made it. No one else could really
copy it … now there’s just so many new
entrances into the market, so many new
players, that it’s obviously more competi-
tive.”
By offering a one-stop solution that com-
bines the sale of equipment and parts with
excellent customer service and support,
ESS is continuing a tradition of success
that began more than 60 years ago, and is
positioned to carry them into the future. To
