Large hire network AFI-Rentals operates a UK wide hire network of over 5,500 powered access machines across 20 depots in the UK and six in the Middle East, indicating strong coverage for national or regional project needs and potential cross-region equipment sales or transfers.

Integrated services The company offers a spectrum of services including hire, new and used sales, maintenance agreements, financing options, and a platform to sell old equipment, creating multiple entry points for upsell on new machines, maintenance contracts, and trade-in programs.

Training and compliance With a dedicated health, safety and skills training division and certification (UTN Training and NVQ assessments), there is a sales opportunity to bundle equipment with training packages, compliance solutions, or to position higher-margin training services to customers investing in access solutions.

Brand portfolio AFI Hire encompasses three brands (AFI-Uplift, AJ Rentals, Wilson Access Hire) offering diverse solutions for working at height, enabling targeted cross-sell by brand alignment to specific industries or project needs and expanding reach into niche segments.

Financial readiness Revenue scale ($50M-$100M) and availability of finance and service maintenance options signal readiness to engage buyers with financing offers, extended warranties, and service plans, reducing friction for fleet upgrades or multi-site deployments.
