MacAllister to move HQ

US heavy equipment supplier MacAllister Machinery has announced plans to relocate its Indianapolis headquarters to a new location around 10 miles down away.

Expected to be completed by the end of 2016 the new $44.5 million facility will house the company’s sales, rental, parts, equipment service and administrative operations as well as provide display areas. It will also include 91,500 square metres of office space, which is more than triple the size of its current headquarters offices.

MacAllister Machinery president Chris MacAllister, said: “This new headquarters on Southeastern Avenue will allow us to consolidate five separate locations into one and provide the elbow room to operate more efficiently. Our customers, employees and the community will be better served, plus we will have room to continue growing.”

Founded in 1945, family run and owned MacAllister is one of the leading Caterpillar dealers in the US. With 20 rental and service locations throughout Indiana the company’s divisions include MacAllister Power Systems, MacAllister Transportation, MacAllister Agriculture and MacAllister Rentals - which took delivery of its third 185ft JLG 1850SJ Ultra boom lift earlier this month - see: Third 1850SJ MacAllister.
