Our Story, Mission and Global Impact

Discover how IR Construction Equipment Sourcing became a trusted partner for heavy machinery procurement worldwide

Who We Are

IR Construction Equipment Sourcing is a Canadian-based global procurement and logistics specialist that focuses on connecting construction projects with the world's best heavy machinery solutions. Founded over a decade ago in Toronto by industry veterans, we've grown from a regional equipment broker to an international firm serving clients across six continents.

Our journey began with a simple observation: construction companies were spending excessive time and resources navigating complex global equipment markets. We made it our mission to create a seamless bridge between project needs and equipment availability, developing proprietary procurement methods and establishing strategic partnerships with manufacturers worldwide.

Today, our team comprises 45 multilingual professionals operating from our Canadian headquarters and regional offices in Vancouver, Dubai, and Singapore. We have successfully procured and delivered over 3,200 heavy machinery units for projects ranging from urban infrastructure to remote mining operations.
