Owen Edwards

Owen Edwards is passionate about the construction equipment industry, especially the rental segment.

Rental has been a major focus in all three. Experiencing rental from multiple perspectives gives him an in-depth appreciation of the challenges of each.

Finally, he appreciates the manufacturing industry and the challenges they have in distribution strategies, especially when it comes to rental.
