AMECO, the equipment rental division of Fluor Corp, has established a permanent office in Peru three years after first entering the South American market. The business is a partnership with local partner Choice Cargo, a Peruvian transport and logistics company, and is being operated under the name Choice Equipos y Servicios, based in Lima.

A spokesperson for Fluor Corp said; "For the past three years, AMECO has supported three large projects in Peru. Given the projected growth in Peru over the next several years in various markets, AMECO made the decision to open a permanent office and transitioned the project based operation to offering full construction site services and operations fleet services."

Services offered by the division include the provision of equipment, tools, parts, maintenance, repair, consumable and safety supplies and operator training.
