Year of service
A born entrepreneur and people person, Andrew Paquette didn’t miss a beat when technology came calling with new ways to stay connected to others.

For the last four years Matthew Imboden, the owner and operator of Matt’s Rentals,  has been renting his log-splitter to customers until he recouped his return on investment and sold it for a profit in the spring. For that entire time that he owned that machine it could not fit inside his rental shop.
