Blue Compass RV has acquired Coach-Net, a provider of roadside assistance and other F&I products.
In operation since 1987, Coach-Net provides roadside and technical assistance 24/7/365 with a network of more than 40,000 roadside assistance providers in the United States and Canada.
Coach-Net will continue to operate as a separate business, Blue Compass said. Coach-Net will support all customers under its relationships with OEMs, RV rental partners, dealers and individuals.
“We established a partnership with Coach-Net in 2019 to provide member benefits including technical and roadside assistance for all customers that purchase a new or used RV from one of our over 100 stores across America,” said Jon Ferrando, founder, President and CEO of Blue Compass RV. “The level of customer service and benefits that Coach-Net provides for RV customers is second to none in the industry. We are excited to invest in the growth of Coach-Net to provide even more benefits for RV customers and the network of dealers who sell the roadside assistance program.”
Blue Compass closed the acquisition Feb. 8.
“David Ostlund will continue as president of Coach-Net,” Ferrando said. “Under his leadership in recent years Coach-Net has excelled to provide the highest quality roadside and technical assistance products offered in the RV industry, while building a great culture aligned with ours to provide an exceptional work environment and customer experience.”
Ostlund said his team was excited to join Blue Compass.
“With the support from Blue Compass,” Ostlund said, “we are positioned to continue developing value-added products and services for our RV members and key partners, including OEMs, dealers, RV renters and individual RV owners.”
