READING, Penn.– Rentokil North America announced the acquisition of Stafford, Texas-based Environmental Coalition Incorporated (ECI). The acquisition was finalized in December.
"We are thrilled to welcome ECI into the Rentokil family,” said John Myers, President and CEO of Rentokil North America. "We look forward to continuing to serve the commercial customers in the greater Houston area by protecting people and enhancing lives.”
ECI was founded in 1991 by Jay and Terri Porter, and their son Dan and his wife Victoria joined the family business in 2006 and 2012, respectively. The commercial pest business provides services in nine Texas counties, including the communities of Austin, Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty, Montgomery and Waller.
“I speak for the entire team when I say that we are excited about the potential for growth and about seeing our life’s work continue to thrive,” said Dan Porter, District Manager of ECI. “Our values are equally paired with Rentokil, and our mutual commitment to high standards are a big reason why we decided to merge.”
The Potomac Company acted as exclusive financial advisor to Environmental Coalition Incorporated.
