READING, Pa. — Rentokil North America announces the continued expansion of its pest control business with the acquisition of Chicago-based Anderson Pest Solutions, a $21 million company.
Anderson, family-owned since 1913, serves residential and commercial customers throughout Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Missouri, and Wisconsin.
John Myers, CEO and President of Rentokil North America said: “As one of the leading independent pest control companies in the Chicago metropolitan area, I am delighted that Anderson Pest Solutions is joining Rentokil. Like Rentokil, Anderson brings with it a strong commitment to world-class service, a great management team, and a focus on innovation. As a result, there is a strong cultural fit between the two companies and I look forward to bringing Anderson into the Rentokil family of businesses.”
Mark O’Hara, President of Anderson Pest Solutions said, “While it is always difficult for an owner to sell a family-owned business, I feel that the timing is right. Just as importantly, I know that Rentokil is absolutely the right buyer as it also believes in the importance of well-trained technicians delivering reliable, guaranteed work in an environmentally and responsible way.”
