    In June, the 2025 Sandhills Global Forum brought together professionals from the construction, agriculture, commercial trucking, and aviation industries. Attendees had opportunities for an array of educational sessions, networking, and entertainment. During that time, Jim Niebur of Affordable Construction Equipment sat down to talk with us about how AuctionTime, Machinery Trader, TractorHouse, and FR8Star have played key roles in his company’s success.

    Using Sandhills Solutions For Regional & Global Sales
