Parkit Enterprise Inc. (“Parkit” or the “Company”) (TSXV: PKT; OTCQX: PKTEF) is pleased to announce that it has purchased the operating assets of Smart Parking Solutions Canada Inc.(“Smartpark”) and employed its principals, Steve Strauss and AviMinkowitz, all effective July 1, 2018.

Smartpark is engaged in the parking management business and this strategic acquisition both expands Parkit’s footprint and provides additional expertise to source and acquire parking assets.

The purchase includes 5 parking management agreements in the Greater Toronto Area, as well as 10 permit management agreements with municipal and institutional clients in the United States including the City of Aspen CO, Arlington County VA and the Durham NH Police Department.
