NEW PRODUCTS: The latest and greatest from around the industry
New concept: RTO Ranch and Ropers Supply, of Center, Texas, is providing an opportunity to purchase ranching and roping equipment on a rent-to-own basis. This will allow purchasers the opportunity to pay for their much-needed equipment monthly through the rent-to-own concept, since financing is not typically available for these items. No limits: RTO is working with all the major providers of ranching and roping equipment in the U.S. and do not endorse any single manufacturer. “We want everyone to choose the product they need and the manufacturer or dealer they want to work with, either in their area of the country, or directly,” said Darrell Cripps, RTO president and director of marketing. “We are finding lots of individuals who need arenas, roping dummies, roping chutes, round pens, horse walkers, arena drags and more, that need just a little help to make the purchase.” Background: Jim Donnan, Partner and CEO of RTO Ranch and Ropers Supply, originated one of the very first rent-to-own companies in the U.S. for portable buildings and was a pioneer in that industry. Both Donnan and Cripps are avid team ropers and have been involved in both ranching and roping for many years and are excited to bring this concept to the ranching and roping industry.
