Everyone has an origin story. The SalesMaker Carts story started with, of all things, a copier. If you’ve ever tried moving a copier, you know it’s a process unlike any other. Honestly, it’s terrible. But it did lead to an idea that turned into the company you’re reading about right now.
What began with the moving of a single copier, now boasts two stocking warehouses nationwide. It just goes to show that you never know where a great idea will come from.
All of the carts are handmade. It might not be the most efficient way to craft carts, but at SalesMaker Carts it’s the only way. When something is made by hand, there are no shortcuts.
“We also only use the best components. At SalesMaker Carts, we define the best as the finest grade aluminum. We chose this type of metal for a few reasons. It’s known for exceptional strength. It’s lightweight. And it’s forgiving. These are all incredible traits to have when you’re in the business of crafting carts,” the company website explains.
“We got into this business simply because we saw a need for making transporting equipment easier,” it adds. “But the more we dove into the mechanics of this industry we discovered an amazing monetary benefit, as well. SalesMaker Carts can help protect your most important asset – your people.”
Operations Manager Nathan McKay recently shared more information about the company and its plans for 2026 and beyond.
Q: Can you tell us a little about your company?
McKay: At SalesMaker Carts, we specialize in supplying durable, mobile equipment solutions that improve efficiency in site-to-site and oftentimes off-campus work requirements. Our high-quality carts help teams move equipment, technology and materials safely and easily. We offer gurney-style folding carts that serve as mobile workstations for technicians and sales reps, compact computer carts and even heavy-duty stair-climbing dollies for material handling.
Q: How does your company stand out in the imaging space?
McKay: Many imaging departments don’t need highly customized, expensive transport systems – they need reliable, mobile workstations that simply work every day. That’s where we come in. Since 1992, our carts have been built with a strong emphasis on durability, mobility, and space efficiency. One of our biggest differentiators is our folding cart design. Unlike traditional fixed workstations, our folding carts can be easily stored when not in use, or alongside your equipment in the back of vehicles when off-campus work is necessary.
Q: What is on the horizon for your company?
McKay: In the near term, one of our biggest goals is to continue growing our presence in medical and imaging environments. Our carts are already used to transport sensitive diagnostic equipment, including ultrasound and lab systems, and we see a clear opportunity to further tailor our solutions to grow in that space. A lot of imaging departments are still using workarounds – stationary desks, makeshift carts or multiple pieces of equipment – when a purpose-built mobile solution could simplify their workflow. We want to make sure more healthcare providers understand that there are better, safer and more efficient options available.
Q: Is there anything else you would like ICE Magazine readers to know?
McKay: Flexibility matters more than ever. Imaging departments are evolving, with more portable diagnostics and multi-use spaces becoming the norm. Having equipment that can adapt – rather than being fixed in one place – gives facilities a lot more control over how they operate. And finally, we want people to know that we’re approachable. Whether it’s a large hospital system or a small outpatient imaging center, we take pride in working directly with customers to find practical solutions that fit their specific needs – not just selling a product off the shelf.
