With acquisition of SFO Airporter SS becomes the largest ground transortation company in San Francisco. Super Shuttle announced today it has acquired SFO Airporter in San Francisco. The purchase price was not disclosed. The acquisition of SFO Airporter completes SS's strategy in San Francisco, to become the largest diversified ground transportation company in the bay area. By incorporating SFO Airporter's 35 coach vehicles, 55 mimi-buses and 5 vans into the system, SS will be able to operate a combined fleet of approximately 200 vehicles in San Francisco offering a larger array of services to the convention business and its large corporate clients. "We opened San Francisco in 1985, and it continues to be an important market for supershuttle. It was the second major city we opened after the Los Angeles area was launched in 1983," said Tom LaVoy, executive vice president and chief financial officer of SS."We have long been regarded as the largest nationally known airport ground transportation company, but many of our customers have requested other ground transportation services. We have chosen to diversify our fleet with acquisitions gaining management, employees, and vehicles to fulfill the requests of our customers." SFO Airporter has been owned and operated by the Leonoudakis Family for over 20 years. Jeff Leonoudakis, who has been president of SFO Airporter will remain at the helm of the new combined operations as Vice President and General Manager of San Francisco operations for SS. |
