The Aust Group is excited to announce the most recent acquisition of their client, ARMS Pest Management. Gregory Pest Solutions has acquired ARMS, based out of Summerville, South Carolina as part of an asset purchase agreement. The Aust Group represented ARMS as the exclusive financial advisor on this transaction.
Kenneth Tietze, the owner of ARMS, formed the company in 2013. He and his wife, Billiejean, have grown the company over the last several years with a high concentration of their customers in the North Charleston area.
Kenneth and Billiejean said, “We couldn’t imagine the sale of our business being so seamless and enjoyable without The Aust Group as our financial advisor. They were able to identify a company in Gregory Pest Solutions that matched our culture and had the same passion for quality service. It brought us a great sense of confidence and peace knowing that The Aust Group had gone through the process of selling their own pest control company. The team was committed, responsive, and proved to be extremely valuable by delivering on their promises to us. While The Aust Group provided an excellent transactional service in a timely manner, we are grateful to have gained lifelong friends in Stuart and his team.”
Regarding ARMS, Stuart Aust commented on the transaction saying, “I’m delighted for our clients Kenneth and Billiejean Tietze of ARMS Pest Management. I was impressed by the company they built and how they handled the acquisition. This is a natural fit for both parties and ARMS is excited to join the Gregory Pest Solutions team.”
