Aaron Equipment Company, the industry leading dealer in used process and packaging equipment sales, announced that Joel Bersh has been named Managing Partner of Aaron Industrial Solutions (AIS), a newly formed company that will provide auction, liquidation and consulting services.
Joel is a 30-year veteran in the industrial auction business and has comprehensive expertise in metalworking, foundries, plastics, construction, printing and other industrial assets. He has successfully managed more than 500 auctions over the past 17 years valued in excess of $200 million.
Joel is licensed in 12 states and with current reciprocity agreements can conduct auctions in most of the United States.

AIS will fulfill a need in the process, packaging, chemical, food and other industries, allowing stakeholders a new opportunity to monetize their assets.
“We are incredibly excited to have someone with Joel’s talent, reputation and acumen join the Aaron team,” said Alan Cohen, CEO of Aaron Equipment. “We have known and worked with Joel for many years and are pleased he has agreed to come on board. Joel and Bennett form a great leadership team that will allow us to expand and grow our auction business significantly!”
