Volvo Rents, North America, Europe--Volvo Rents Celebrates Grand Opening in Baton Rouge, La.

On Oct. 21, 2010, Volvo Rents officially launched a new Volvo Rents location in Baton Rouge, La., with a grand opening celebration. JPS Equipment is one of five stores owned and operated by Paul and Penny Bullock. The location’s address is 36326 Highway 30, Geismar, La. 70734. Phone 225/744-4116.

The Bullock family is recognized by their clients for their client care and has been named Volvo Rents’ Franchise of the Year for four years in a row during the Volvo Rent’s Circle of Excellence Awards in 2010.

The grand opening included a fried fish and shrimp lunch with approximately 300 attendees, along with many local contractors involved in the construction, agricultural and other local industries. Also on hand were equipment vendors to answer any questions about the wide range of equipment available to rent.
