New business for John Ball

John Ball, previously managing director of Easi Uplifts/Height for Hire has established a new company in the access business.

The company, Velocity Rental Solutions has been established initially to help and support rental companies, entrepreneurs and manufacturers interesting in expanding or moving outside of their area of expertise. It can also help with procurement - Easi Uplifts have always managed to buy at the keenest prices - fleet management and rental fleet sales and marketing. Ball says that he is willing to contract with interested companies on a consulting basis or in exchange for equity, and is most interested in helping companies that could benefit from his expertise and contacts.
