Fleetwood Security & Electronic Services Acquired By Priority One Security

Priority One Security acquired Generational Equity client Fleetwood Security & Electronic Services Inc. on May 31, 2018.

Fleetwood Security is based in Cartersville, GA. It has been operated by Billy Fleetwood and the Fleetwood family members. It has been in operation since 1999, and for more than 20 years Fleetwood Security has provided residential and commercial integrated security solutions to the Atlanta metropolitan areas. 

Fleetwood's large customer base includes residential, commercial, and industrial – from single homes to Fortune 500 clients.

Headquartered in Greenville, S.C., this is the second acquisition for Priority One Security in the past two years and the fifth major acquisition in its 22-year history. With the acquisition, Priority One Security obtains a group of talented people and an established company in the Atlanta market.

William Francis, President of Priority One Security, said, “Priority One Security is committed to supporting our account base. Part of doing so is through controlled growth. We evaluate several acquisition opportunities each year, but only a handful fit our strategy.”

“The Fleetwood Security acquisition strengthens our presence in the Atlanta market. It allows us to extend our support to existing clients, and the opportunity to pick up new customers, but most importantly, it’s an acquisition of talent.”

Generational Equity Senior Managing Director Julie Sandoval’s team successfully closed the deal. Senior Managing Director Thomas Hamm established the initial relationship with Fleetwood.
