HASCO Medical, Inc. (OTCBB: HASC), www.mysouthernmed.com, a managed healthcare provider that serves patients in Alabama, Florida, and Mississippi, announced today its acquisition of Mobility Freedom Inc. and Wheelchair Vans of America.
Mobility Freedom offers their clients a complete inventory of new and used wheelchair accessible vans to their customers in the Clermont, Orlando, Tampa, Edgewater, Palm Coast and Pensacola area in Florida. They also offer additional services on most mobility vans with items such as extended warranty, adaptive equipment like automobile hand controls or EZ lock tie downs.
They are a licensed automobile dealer, home lift system provider, VA and VR state certified vendors and they are also exclusive vendors for certain Florida state funded agencies.
Wheelchair Vans of America specializes in renting conversion vans to the disabled individuals visiting the State of Florida. The vans have a lowered floor conversion with a fully automatic fold out ramp and kneeling system for ease of use.
Hal Compton, CEO of HASCO Medical, stated, "This is a great compliment to Mobility Freedom since none of the major car rental companies have wheelchair accessible conversion vans in their inventory of vehicles."
In the eleven years Mobility Freedom has been in operation, it has grown from $500,000 in sales in the first year to over $10 million in 2010. Mobility Freedom has four corporate owned stores and two affiliates for a total of six operation centers throughout the State of Florida. For more information, please visit www.mobilityfreedom.com.
Hal Compton continued, "The Mobility Freedom acquisition provides an important step in continuing Hasco Medical's strategy to be a healthcare industry consolidator."
