SKIDATA posts record: 7,000th parking system installed

With the installation of a parking system in ´s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands, SKIDATA has now equipped 7,000 parking facilities with its solutions worldwide. SKIDATA can be found in more than 90 countries. Whether at the airport in Hong Kong or in Dallas, Eastgate Shopping Center in South Africa, or in the Market Hall Rotterdam - all have one thing in common: the parking management comes from SKIDATA.

7,000 parking customers in over 90 countries. Originating from an innovative idea, the Salzburg company is today one of the world's leading solution providers for professional vehicle access management.

The success story of SKIDATA began in 1977 with the invention of the first access systems for ski resorts. Building on this, the portfolio was expanded in 1985 to vehicle access management, and just three years later the first SKIDATA parking system was installed in Vienna, Austria. The first major successes appeared a little later: In 1992, SKIDATA took over the parking management for one of the largest airports in the world, the Munich Airport, which still trusts in the know-how of the access expert.

In less than two years, SKIDATA was able to increase its parking system installations from 6,000 to 7,000. This week was the celebration of the 7,000th facility, which is a multi-tenant office building with 518 parking spaces, situated in ´s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands.

"We are very excited about the 7,000 parking customers and are very proud to have turned an innovative idea for people access for ski resorts into an internationally active and growing company", says Hugo Rohner, CEO of SKIDATA. Today SKIDATA is present in more than 90 countries worldwide with its 23 subsidiaries, 3 joint ventures and numerous partners. Overall, the Salzburg company has 10,000 customers in the area of access and visitor management solutions for ski resorts, shopping centers, airports, cities, sports stadiums, trade shows, theme parks and more.
