Genemco is Established
Mark McMillian, the soon-to-be founder of Genemco, was running a small successful dairy business in Texas. While running this business he picked up a few tools along the way. To save money, he invested in using pre-owned equipment and became an expert at auctions. When it came time to sell his business to the largest dairy company in the region, the equipment he acquired over the years was still in his possession because it was not part of the deal. And with that, the entrepreneur in Mark harnessed his know-how, his auction expertise and his relationships he created along the way and channeled all of it into a new company. A pre-owned equipment company not just for dairy but for all industrial food processing and refrigeration equipment that would help others have access to the equipment they at any budget and with zero lead times. Thus, Genemco was born.
