ACI Holdings Group Announces Name Change to Heartland Paving Partners
NEW YORK, Oct. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ACI Holdings Group, a prominent platform in the commercial paving industry, announced today its rebranding to Heartland Paving Partners or "Heartland." This name change marks an important chapter in the company's evolution, symbolizing Heartland's position as a premier provider of pavement services across the upper Midwest and a preferred partner to regional or local contractors looking to sell their businesses.
Heartland is a platform investment of Soundcore Capital Partners, a leading buy-and-build private equity firm known for its strategic control equity investments, primarily in founder-owned and -led companies. This name change aligns with Heartland's strategic vision and coincides with several recent developments including the appointment of Rick Barrett as Chief Executive Officer and Chad Bailey as Chief Financial Officer. These developments follow the acquisition of Asphalt Solutions Inc. in Indiana, the third acquisition for Heartland since the platform's inception in July of 2022.
Rick Barrett, Heartland's CEO, expressed his enthusiasm for the company's rebranding. "This is a positive change that brings our corporate identity in line with our strategic vision. Heartland will now become synonymous with partnership via acquiring new businesses, supporting their growth and employee development, and providing essential services to customers in regions where maintaining asphalt and concrete surfaces is particularly challenging."
Jeff Long, Operating Partner at Soundcore Capital Partners, added, "This rebranding is another step in our buy-and-build approach and adds further clarity to our overall strategy. Heartland serves as the ideal platform for our growth aspirations. We are excited about our recent momentum and remain confident about Heartland's prospects in the upper Midwest."
Heartland Paving Partners is positioned to become a leading super-regional contractor in the paving industry by providing innovative solutions, technical expertise, and quality service built over decades of experience.
