Towne Park Acquires Quality Parking Service
Continuing its strategic growth, Towne Park’s parent company Towne Holdings, Inc. acquires Quality Parking Service, Inc. of Los Angeles
Today, Towne Park officially announced the acquisition
of greater Los Angeles parking management company, Quality Parking Service,
Inc. This move brings Towne Park’s west
coast presence to over 110 accounts and 1,300 plus associates. The acquisition included considerable event
services and commercial parking management accounts.
Quality Parking has established a strong presence and
rapport in the greater Los Angeles area with an impressive customer portfolio
which complements Towne Park’s. Their
extensive commercial parking expertise further balances the combined market
presence. With similar cultures,
talented and tenured associates, service centralism, and leveraging of best
practices, the combined companies will create a stronger base in the Los
Angeles market and the entire west coast.
Towne Park’s Founder and current CEO, Jerry B. South,
shared this about the Quality Parking Service acquisition:
The
addition of Quality Parking to our portfolio of accounts in the greater Los
Angeles area gives Towne Park the market position to fuel organic growth in one
of the top three cities in the country. In addition to the impressive client
list within the Quality portfolio, we could not be more excited about the new
teammates who now join the Towne Park family! The talent, alignment and energy
of the Quality Parking management team made this acquisition a “no
brainer” for Towne Park. Quality Parking founder Ben Akbary has done a
magnificent job of developing deep relationships with the Los Angeles business
community. Couple that foundation with Towne Park’s support structure and
available resources and we will double our collective market share in less than
three years, while providing growth and career opportunities for all Towne Park
associates.
