Blanchard Machinery Wins Pink Light Tower from Doosan Portable Power

Doosan Portable Power dealer Blanchard Machinery of Miami, recently added a newly branded pink LightSource Compact light tower to its rental fleet by winning a lottery in October, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

All Doosan Portable Power dealers in the U.S. and Canada had the opportunity to enter the lottery for the chance to purchase one of three pink Doosan Portable Power machines — the LSC light tower, a G25 mobile generator and a P185 portable air compressor.

The three pieces of equipment were painted pink to raise breast cancer awareness within the industry and support the Charlotte, N.C., affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, the U.S.’s leading breast cancer awareness and research organization.

“When we saw that Doosan Portable Power was promoting breast cancer awareness, we also wanted to support the cause,” said Scott Baxter, president of Blanchard Machinery. “We’ve been affected personally — and businesswise — by breast cancer. We’re eager to take ownership of the LSC. It will be utilized as part of our rental fleet, and we’re going to try to rent it primarily for use at special events to continue to raise awareness and publicize the cause.”

The LSC is designed and manufactured at the Doosan Portable Power global headquarters in Statesville, N.C.

With Blanchard Machinery’s purchase of the pink LSC, Doosan Portable Power donated $2,000 to the Charlotte affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

Blanchard Machinery is headquartered in North Miami, Fla., and has branch locations in South Miami and West Palm Beach, Fla. It also services the light equipment needs of South Florida, the Bahamas, Caribbean and Latin America.
