Acuity Brands Expands into Service Station and Convenience Store Market
Acuity Brands, Inc. announced its expansion into the re-fueling vertical, including service stations, convenience stores, and quick-service restaurants. The company is reimagining the customer experience with solutions specifically developed for these applications, alongside existing products from its lighting and controls portfolio.
Acuity Brands has entered into a sales agency agreement with Red Leonard Associates, Inc. (RLA), a leading independent sales agent in this vertical, servicing the Midwest, Northeast, and Canada. This partnership positions Acuity Brands well to compete in this established and growing market.
“We continue to make investments for future growth, prioritizing new verticals where we have not historically competed or where we are under-penetrated,” said Trevor Palmer, President of Acuity Brands Lighting and Controls. “The combination of our portfolio of industry-leading lighting and controls products, alongside RLA’s 50 years of deep industry knowledge, positions us well to provide unique solutions for convenience stores, service stations, and adjoining quick-service restaurants where we have not broadly competed.”
“Acuity Brands will provide our customers with innovative technology solutions needed to reimagine the customer experience,” said Jayme Leonard, Principal at RLA. “We look forward to working with the team.”
