Good deal: Web-based marketplace takes back, serves up surplus equipment and parts

摘要

Industrial repair and spare parts: mark the sweet spot for Ann Arbor, Mich,-based SurplusTrack.com. A Web-based marketplace, SurplusTrack.com offers companies a way to remove surplus or obsolete parts both from their books and physical premises. "We maintain a warehouse because many clients are looking for someone to quantify their goods and remove them from their floor space to keep them from getting intermingled with good inventory/' says Brent Ray, SurplusTrack. com president. "A lot of the material is brand nev, maintenance repair and spare parts, but because of changes in manufacturing processes, new equipment acquisitions, or a change in the product line, they don't need them anymore."
