Incline Equity Partners (“Incline”), a Pittsburgh-based private equity firm, is pleased to announce its partnership with Barefoot Mosquito & Pest Control (“Barefoot” or the “Company”), a leading provider of environmentally-conscious pest control services.
Headquartered in Austin, TX, Barefoot provides mosquito and general pest control services throughout Texas. The Company has established a trusted brand given its effective, natural pest control treatment solutions and best-in-class customer service. Barefoot was founded in 2011 by Joseph Barclay and Jason Revill, who bring decades of experience in the pest control industry.
“We are enthusiastic about our partnership with the Barefoot team,” said Brad Phillips, Managing Director at Incline. “Joseph and Jason have built a strong platform in a mosquito-friendly region, where demand is recurring and non-discretionary. There is significant opportunity to enter new geographies and explore additional service offerings through a combination of strategic M&A and greenfield openings.”
“We were looking for a partner with experience growing exterior service companies that culturally aligned with our team, and Incline was the perfect choice for our next phase of growth,” said Jason Revill, Co-CEO of Barefoot. “We look forward to making investments in our marketing capabilities to expand our loyal customer base. Additionally, Incline’s resources will enable us to enhance our technician recruiting and training programs to maintain our standard of service as we grow. We are excited about what the future holds with Incline.”
