Yancey Bros. Co

What Yancey Bros. Co does

Yancey Bros. Co. is a privately held authorized Caterpillar dealer that has served the state of Georgia continuously since 1914. The company operates 36 locations and 309 service bays across the state, distributing new and used heavy equipment, power generation systems, buses, trucks, and engineered solutions to a diversified industrial customer base spanning construction, heavy construction, agriculture, forestry, marine, paving, quarry and aggregates, waste, landscaping, data centers, entertainment, government, and healthcare. Yancey's revenue model combines equipment sales supported by Cat Financial captive financing, a 40,000-SKU parts operation housed in a 170,000 sq ft warehouse, recurring service and maintenance contracts delivered through 30+ power-trained and 8+ switchgear-certified technicians, and a 16MW+ owned generator rental fleet — the largest Caterpillar dealer-owned rental power fleet in Georgia, backed by a broader 3.3 GW U.S. Cat dealer pool.

The business is organized into specialized divisions including Yancey Rents (equipment rental), Yancey Power Systems (generator and switchgear solutions), Yancey Truck Centers (vocational trucks), Yancey Bus (exclusive Blue Bird bus franchise for Georgia), Yancey Engineered Solutions (project engineering and integration), and Yancey On-Site Hydraulics (mobile hydraulic service). Yancey also holds authorized dealer relationships with Weiler, Gomaco, and Autocar to extend its product line beyond Caterpillar, and participates in the Sourcewell cooperative purchasing network and the RIG360 rental partnership to broaden public-sector and cross-channel access.

Customer engagement is anchored in Caterpillar's digital platforms — VisionLink, Cat Inspect, Remote Access Monitoring, SOS Fluid Analysis, and Cat Compact — combined with Customer Value Agreements that embed recurring service and parts commitments. Go-to-market spans direct sales, rental, cooperative contracting, and service contract renewals, with significant exposure to long-cycle infrastructure, data center, and municipal projects in Georgia.
