What Sanval does
Sanval is a Mexican heavy equipment distributor and service company headquartered in Zapopan, Jalisco. Founded in 2004 as "Rentech MX" and incorporated as Sanval in 2012, the company is an authorized distributor for DOOSAN/DEVELON (since 2012), HIDROMEK (since 2018), and Fine Breaker hydraulic hammers (since 2009), selling excavators, wheel loaders, backhoes, motor graders, compactors, and complementary attachments such as quick couplers, rock drills, vibratory plates, and hydraulic kits. Customers are enterprises in the construction, demolition, and mining sectors across all 32 Mexican states.
The company monetizes across multiple revenue streams: new and used/semi-new equipment sales (one-time purchase), equipment rental with optional operation services (recurring), a rent-to-own plan called PLAN RENOCO (recurring with conversion option), parts (refacciones), and preventive/corrective technical maintenance including certified inspections and fluid analysis. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; financing options include 24-month credit at 0% interest on Doosan equipment, subject to credit approval. The go-to-market motion is sales-led, delivered through direct customer service representatives covering every Mexican state and supported by a multi-channel digital presence (website, blog, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube).
Sanval's value proposition rests on being a one-stop lifecycle partner — equipment acquisition (multiple ownership models), aftermarket parts, on-site technical service, and trained operator provision — backed by a DOOSAN Latin America & Caribbean best post-sale service recognition. The company is privately held with no external investors, parent company, or subsidiaries disclosed in the source material, and operates with an estimated 51–100 employees.
