Athletic Recovery Zone has been acquired by Dragon Seats
The shareholders of Athletic Recovery Zone have sold the company to Dragon Seats.
Athletic Recovery Zone was founded in 2010 by commercial and industrial HVAC specialists Brian Cothren and Billy Quillen, to create modular climate control bench systems. The concept was borne out of a collaboration with Jacksonville Jaguars athletic trainers, who were searching for a cooling solution for players enduring Florida’s hot, humid conditions. Today, the company builds and rents patented temperature-controlled systems primarily to the athletics, entertainment and events industries. The cooling system reduces heat-related injuries and core body temperatures quickly for athletes and event spectators. It also converts to a heating system when weather conditions turn frigid.
Based in Cleveland, Ohio, Bourne Creations Inc., dba Dragon Seats, provides climate-controlled benches and sideline solutions to the majority of NFL member clubs, dozens of Power-5 college football programs, baseball dugouts and lifestyle spaces. The company has a 25-year track record of maximizing safety, comfort and performance for athletes in all weather conditions.
Oaklins Heritage in Jacksonville served as the intermediary and exclusive financial advisor to the seller in this transaction.
