The Growth of the Machinery and Heavy Repair Industry

If you’re thinking about starting your own business and looking for something with good earnings potential, consider a heavy equipment repair franchise like PIRTEK. And, no—you don’t need to know anything about hydraulic or industrial hoses to be successful. Actually, 84% of our franchisees have come to PIRTEK with little to no experience in the business!

Simply put, what first attracts most of our franchisees to start a heavy equipment repair franchise with PIRTEK is our B2B service model and our expanding industry. In fact, that growth is predicted to outpace other service sectors by 10.4% over the next five years. This increase is further demonstrated by the U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics, which predicts employment in the heavy equipment repair industry will outgrow the average rate for all occupations by 13% from 2019 to 2029.

The key to the success of the PIRTEK franchise is the enduring demand for its services across nearly every sector of our economy. From manufacturing to construction to distribution, transportation, agriculture, and small business, hoses are the driver of countless systems.

Now that you know why we are a smart investment let’s talk about how to get started. As we said before, you don’t need to know about hydraulic and industrial hoses in order to join the PIRTEK team; you just need a willingness to learn. A big part of our training is teaching you about the industry itself, giving you the tools you’ll use to make your business thrive.

And even then, you aren’t expected to become a full-fledged expert in the field. Instead, throughout the life of your business, we’ll regularly provide you with timely research and development updates in the heavy equipment repair industry to keep you on top of what you need to know. Add to that our sales, marketing, training, and ongoing operational support for not just you but for your employees as well, and you’ll see why PIRTEK is the go-to choice for potential franchisees who are looking to grow both professionally and financially in their own B2B service company.

So, if you’re looking to invest in a franchise but figure a heavy equipment repair franchise is out of your league, we say think again. There’s a reason Franchise Times ranked us 3rd out of 200 other franchises in overall unit growth. And unlike a lot of them, we’ve continued to grow despite the trying times in which we find ourselves. This expansion is a result of spending the last 40+ years building a recession-resistant business model in an industry with a continual healthy demand.
