PRI Enterprises provides professional repair, restoration, and maintenance services that extend equipment life, improve appearance, and reduce equipment disruptions.
From structural repairs to custom fabrication, we restore the strength and functionality of your equipment so it can keep working as hard as you do.
SERVICES INCLUDE:
High-quality industrial coatings, refinishing, and sandblasting services help protect your investment and restore your equipment to a like-new appearance. When needed, we use sandblasting to remove rust, old paint, corrosion, and surface contaminants, creating a clean, properly prepared surface for long-lasting paint adhesion and a professional finish.
SERVICES INCLUDE:
Our expertise extends far beyond the equipment featured here. If it works in the field, on the farm, or supports your operation, chances are we can repair, restore, maintain, or refurbish it. No job is too small or too large, and we are committed to keeping your equipment operating safely, reliably, and efficiently.

Our MARS (Maintenance and Renovation Services) program provides participants with the opportunity to develop valuable hands-on skills in agricultural equipment maintenance, repair, fabrication, welding, painting, and equipment restoration. These technical skills are developed through real-world work experience in a production environment that mirrors industry standards and expectations. PRI’s MARS program provides on-site fabrication, welding, and repair of agricultural equipment, allowing participants to gain practical experience while supporting essential operations.
Inmate workers gain experience working on tractors, implements, heavy equipment, and other agricultural machinery used throughout Florida’s agricultural industry. Through equipment inspections, preventive maintenance, mechanical repairs, surface preparation, painting, and refurbishment projects, participants build a strong foundation in the skills needed to support today’s equipment maintenance and service workforce.
The work performed through MARS helps develop critical workplace competencies including problem-solving, technical troubleshooting, safety awareness, teamwork, communication, time management, and attention to detail. Participants may also have opportunities to pursue industry-recognized certifications such as OSHA 10, OSHA 30, Forklift Operator Certification, welding credentials, and other workforce development training designed to prepare them for employment after release.
The demand for skilled maintenance technicians, equipment mechanics, welders, and heavy equipment service professionals remains strong across the United States. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of heavy vehicle and mobile equipment service technicians, including those who maintain and repair agricultural and industrial equipment, is projected to grow faster than the average for all occupations, with thousands of job openings expected each year. The continued need for equipment maintenance, infrastructure improvements, agricultural production, and retiring skilled workers has created ongoing opportunities for trained individuals entering these career fields.
By combining technical training with real-world work experience, the MARS program helps participants develop marketable skills that can support post-release employment opportunities in agricultural equipment maintenance, diesel technology, welding and fabrication, machinery repair, industrial maintenance, fleet maintenance, manufacturing, and construction-related industries.
