Last month two titans within the mobility industry, Vantage Mobility Incorporated (VMI) and America’s Mobility Superstore (AMS), partnered. The acquisition of AMS by VMI is sure to help both entities perform their specialties at an even higher level of success. Both Kip Crum, President of AMS, and Doug Eaton, President of VMI, released statements expressing their excitement towards how the two entities will help each other better serve the mobility community.
VMI, one of the nation's largest conversion manufacturers, offers industry leading advancements, and state of the art in-floor conversions for many vehicles including Dodge, Chrysler, Honda, and Toyota through a nationwide dealer network. Leading to VMI providing a premium mobility product, that is ahead of the game, but sometimes not accessible to all price ranges. While AMS has focused on creating an economically priced conversion, that offers consumers a safe and reliable conversion vehicle, at a price that opens mobility freedom to all users, on a nation-wide sales platform.
These two business models have allowed the industry to move into the position it is today, allowing such a large number of wheelchair users to find solutions to their mobility needs. As VMI moves forward with their acquisition of AMS both companies are moving forward with a common goal of granting even more access to mobility vehicles for all users. Despite the acquisition, there will not be a merging between VMI and AMS the companies will continue to function as their own entities in order to continue to serve their own unique customer bases.
We at BLVD, are excited to see how each entity will grow and evolve in the coming time, and what advancements come to mobility vehicles as a direct result.

My professional background stems from non-profit marketing and fundraising for a large children’s cancer hospital. Every day I was able to make connections and relationships for kids and their families going through devastating times. From securing small donations to large corporate support, it was all about providing hope that one day doctors and researchers would find a cure. It was truly an honor to be a part of something so important.
Just this past year, I came to work alongside my family for BLVD.com, a website dedicated to offering the latest information and resources for people needing mobility products. This was a dream come true for me as I have always wanted to combine more time with my family while still helping others. Our family has been in the mobility industry for over 35 years with the goal of enhancing the quality of life for people with mobility issues. This is the spirit behind BLVD and what I am most excited about sharing in my blog.
I love meeting new people and have found that volunteering is the best way to learn more about others and myself.
