DURANTE RENTALS INSTALLS Point of Rental Elite Well known as the New York tri-state area’s powerhouse in the construction equipment rental industry, Durante Rentals is quickly expanding their operations and the industry is taking notice. Founded in 2009 by cousins John Durante and Anthony Durante, along with business partner Chris Jones, the company has seen astounding success in just seven years. The rise of this start-up in the midst of one of the worst economic times the area has ever seen, coupled with its incredible growth, has sparked interest all over the country. From 2013-2015, Durante posted an impressive three-years sales growth of 228% and as a result, the New York-based company has been named one of Inc. 5000’s Fastest Growing Private Companies for the past three consecutive years. After having opened three additional locations within the past 8 months, Durante Rentals is expected to rank even higher this year. This growth has people across the board asking just what is this driving force behind Durante Rentals’ overwhelming success. “We always put our customers first,” Durante Rentals’ President, John Durante, said. “We strive to streamline our processes, provide innovative solutions and look to push the limits of the industry’s technology. To keep up with our rapid growth, we’ve found it essential to invest in our internal processes and constantly search for new areas we can improve upon. Point of Rental is a company that shares these values, leads the industry with intuitive software, and offers customized programming to fit our unique needs – which is why we chose to partner with them.” “We are honored to partner with Durante Rentals,” Point of Rental’s CEO, Wayne Harris said. “They have valuable insight into the rental industry and are adding many new methods of doing business, while also upholding an amazing level of integrity and personalized customer service. With our customized Rental Elite platform, we are eager to help them develop new features and provide innovative solutions to support their tremendous growth.” Having gone live on Point of Rental Elite in mid-July, Durante Rentals is excited for the opportunity to use a system that is robust enough to handle their growth while also providing customizable options, allowing them to run the business in a unique way. “After years of research into different systems, we are confident in our choice of Point of Rental,” Durante Rentals’ CEO, Anthony Durante, said. “We really wanted a system that worked with the natural flow of our business and also allowed us the flexibility of customized features to support our further development. We have been very pleased with their whole team and we truly believe this system will allow us to go to the next level.” POINTOFRENTAL.COM / FALL <strong>2016</strong> 8
