Amano McGann and Metric Expand Partnership in North America

Since June of 2012, Amano McGann has been Metric Parking’s exclusive distribution partner for all sales and marketing efforts in the North American market for multi-space parking meters (MSM). The partnership has proven extremely successful providing extensive growth and increased sales.

Amano McGann and Metric are now excited to announce the extension of their partnership to include the support and service sectors of the business. Going forward, Amano McGann will manage all business operations in North America post manufacturing, which will continue to take place at Metric’s UK based facility.

The partnership has been broadened to effectively build on the successful, long-term partnership that has already been established and leverage the strong local service base that Amano McGann has to offer through its 19 branch offices and extensive distribution network.

Joe Survance, Vice President, Marketing for Amano McGann stated, “The results speak for themselves. We couldn’t be happier with our partnership with Metric. This is the logical next step as we continue to advance our respective businesses. The new large screen (LS) MSM model hits the target for the unique U.S. operations. Combine that with the Amano McGann service and support capabilities and you have a winning combination for our customers.”

The goal for both companies is to provide customers with the best products, account management and service. The growth of this partnership ensures a streamline approach by combining all North American business operations into one. This transition will allow Metric to focus on sales and operations in the United Kingdom where they are a reining leader in the on-street parking industry while Amano McGann, a leading provider of parking automation in the United States, can employ its localized sales/service model and expertise.
