Skeeter Collins, Link Belt’s manager of North American sales said: "General Equipment has already proven themselves an outstanding Link-Belt distributor in North Dakota. We look forward to our customers in Minnesota getting to know their team and exceptional service."

General Equipment's president Don Shilling added: "General Equipment is excited about our appointment to be the Link-Belt dealer in Minnesota. We feel it is a perfect fit for us and a perfect fit for what is happening in this region. The synergy between the oil boom of western North Dakota and the migration of many Minnesota customers into that market will make crane sales and sharing of inventory between the two states not only wise but also very practical."
