The Modern Shop, a division of The Modern Group, is run by a team of dedicated parts professionals in Bristol, PA. If you ever have the chance to drive along the Pennsylvania Turnpike outside of Philadelphia keep an eye out for our headquarters!

What now includes 7 branches throughout the Mid-Atlantic states traces its beginnings to 1946 when the Modern Handling Equipment Company was formed. The company grew steadily, acquiring dealerships and offering equipment rentals throughout New Jersey and Pennsylvania. A holding company, Modern Group Ltd., was established in 1979 for all the dealerships and rental companies that this initial venture spawned.

Several new product lines were added, including warehouse products, standby power generators, rough terrain forklifts, telehandlers, backhoe loaders, skid steers, excavators, track loaders, wheel loaders, carry deck cranes, snow plows and pushers, and ice control equipment. In 1984 Modern employees purchased shares in the business after it was converted into an ESOP Trust.

Today we are a recognized leader in the material handling, construction and industrial power industry. With hundreds of technicians across our territory keeping thousands of customers up and running. Now, with The Modern Shop, we can look to an entire nation we can help through the best online parts experience on the planet!
