Our Story

 

Basicly most companies are found while they were in search for a product or a service.

"We started out to get a computer in the hands of everyday people, and we succeeded beyond our wildest dreams." - Steve Jobs

"Entrepreneurship in its truest form is about identifying a gap in the market and creating a product of use to fill that hole and make people's lives better," – Richard Branson

“I was just trying to help connect people at colleges and a few schools.” – Mark Zuckerberg

Due to the lack of machines and their use in the Discovery TV show "Gold Rush" by some of the characters I was thinking about a business model. In the yard of one of the characters, Tony Beets, is a wide variety of equipment available. In my opinion a waste of recorces and capital. However, Tony leased out some equipment to follow-miners on the show asking a reasonal price. So, my business model was born! Sharing equipment doesn't only fill a gat in the needs for the ones looking for it, but it also has environmental advantages because there is no need to build equipment. Another advantage is that the owner of the equipment can get a return on his investment on idle machines in the yard. A win-win situation where all parties can benefit of each other.

So, I build a platform for a global audience would work. And, after months of hard work with our team of developers, we’re proud to offer you a brand new, PSD2- and GDPR proof, peer-to-peer and low cost platform where you can find all the equipment and machines you can think of.

Then EqpmntRentals B.V. was born. Based upon the same, prize winning platform FlyBySpace.com. Now we offer a truely global brand based upon your location.
