It also will allow Sparkletts to enhance the product offerings currently available to customers in the metropolitan Salt Lake City area, including office coffee service and water filtration.
“This is an exciting acquisition for DS Waters,” said Tom Harrington, COO of DS Waters. “Over the past several years, we have explored many options on how we might expand into this region, and this opportunity is a natural fit into our growth strategy.”
Craig Brewton, CEO of AquaOne, said: “AquaOne is excited to find such a great company (DS Waters) to continue to service our customers. This divestiture will allow us to put more focus on our other markets, while leaving our Utah customers in the hands of another customer-oriented company.”
“We welcome the Salt Lake City area AquaOne customers into the Sparkletts family and look forward to delivering their bottled water, office coffee service and water filtration needs with the same superior level of customer service provided to more than 1,200,000 DS Waters service locations around the country,” added Ray McGillis, west division president for DS Waters.
