  • 45 years. One incredible ride. Join us as we celebrate Kevin Smyser, Used Equipment Specialist, for his 45 years at Martin Equipment! From starting as a welder in high school to nearly 30 years as Store Manager of our Palmyra, MO, location, he has played such an integral role in our success. When asked what’s kept him here for 45 years, Kevin didn't hesitate — it's the people, the culture and the Martin family that have made this more than just a job. Kevin, we’ve enjoyed the ride and are grateful for the expertise, dedication and friendships you’ve built along the way.
