In 2010, building on an idea that construction and agricultural markets needed quality heavy equipment that would bring versatility and simplicity to every job, Applied Machinery Sales became the official importer of Merlo Telehandlers and Rotos.
In a short time, as AMS grew its business, and expanded its dealer network, it also outgrew its location. To accommodate its growing inventory of machines, parts and accessories, AMS moved to its current location in Rock Hill, SC. In 2021, AMS opened a second location in Olathe, Kansas in order to better serve the western US.
