Construction equipment, but you deal with big players depending on area.
My buddy started off with 2-3 generators, and expanded to air compressors, light standards, and continued to build.
Went from 1 piece of equipment, to 50 or more.
However...he already had good contacts in the construction field in his city so he had a head start.
How have the generators been doing? I tried it but didn't see much demand in Los angeles.
Generators were doing well IIRC. But the air compressors were his biggest market share.
Then it just continued growing from there.
Worst / hardest part is keeping things running as they get abused on job sites. But that's when you have good mechanics, and charge the customers for damage.
