Texas’ Holt Cat Provides Power to New York and New Jersey After Hurricane

San Antonio, Texas-based Holt Cat provided power to regions of the Northeast affected by Hurricane Sandy. Holt’s national response team deployed power generator equipment and service technicians to New York and New Jersey, restoring temporary and permanent power in those areas.

Currently, Holt’s generators have provided 13.3 megawatts of electric power to the Northeast, and Holt’s National Accounts administrative staff continues to provide tools and technicians to service power outages. Through sale and rental, Holt has also provided more than 40 dewatering pumps and 100 light towers.

“It speaks volumes [about the company] that Holt’s National Accounts were able to coordinate this much personnel and tap into equipment providers on a local level, who delivered equipment and transportation options to facilitate relief efforts,” said Holt Cat product support sales manager Samuel Miller.

Holt Cat, based in San Antonio, sells, rents and services Caterpillar machines, engines, generators and trucks in a 118-county Texas territory from the Red River to the Rio Grande. Holt Cat is No. 17 on the RER 100.
