After a decade of leading growth and expansion in the specialty tool industry, Al Shiyou has chosen to relinquish his role in the daily operations of SPR.
More than ten years ago, following extensive experience in the industry, Al Shiyou identified a gap in the availability of tools and equipment for maintenance and repair in the oil and gas sector. He saw deficiencies in technological advancement and customer service. Al founded Superior Plant Rentals to revolutionize the field of specialized equipment sales and rentals, establishing new benchmarks for service, innovation, quality, and safety. A decade later, Superior remains committed to its mission of enhancing value through engineering, selling, and renting high-quality specialty tools and equipment with a focus on innovation and the needs of the end-user, which continues to propel the company's growth. While Al is stepping back from the day-to-day operations of SPR, he will assume the role of Chairman of the Board for the Superior Group of Companies, providing strategic guidance and continuing to be a valuable resource for both clients and the Superior team. Eric Dunkerson, who currently serves as the President of SPR, will assume the position of CEO.
