Located in the Ozark foothills, Top Quality Rental Sales has been in business 14 years. Owner of the general rental store in Doniphan, MO, James Fletcher, doesn’t expect the Trump administration to have much of an impact on his business.
“We're in a small town with a population of 14,000 or so," Fletcher said. "The market here is driven by a few manufacturers and chicken farms.
“Last year was a good year for us and we think this will continue into this year. Our store rents primarily to smaller contractors involved in custom homebuilding for single-family homes.”
Fletcher calls his business very niche oriented and in some ways insulated from larger market forces. The area is both a tourist attraction and an attractive place to raise a family and retire, all of which doesn’t hurt the rental business.
