Tontitown-based Central States Manufacturing Inc. closed a deal recently to acquire Storage Structures Inc. in Villa Rica, Ga. Financial terms of the deal, which closed on Dec. 30, were not disclosed in a Tuesday (Jan. 10) news release.

“The synergies between the two companies will provide advantages to both customers and shareholders alike,” Central States CEO Jim Sliker said in the release. “Storage Structures is a leader in their industry with a like-minded commitment to customer service and operational excellence. They have been a premier customer, and I am excited to welcome them as new employee-owners.”
According to the release, Richard Allen has been named president of Storage Structures.
“This allows Storage Structures to merge deep steel-supply relationships and customer-focused manufacturing with our reputation of revolutionary products and service-oriented approach to construction,” Allen said in the release. “This transaction strengthens our position as a provider to the self-storage industry.”
