RMA Worldwide Acquires Kane International Limousine

RMA Worldwide CEO Robert AlexanderRockville, Md. — RMA Worldwide recently announced its successful acquisition of Kane International Limousine, forming the one of the largest private transportation fleets in the greater Washington region, and one of the most extensive chauffeured transportation operations in the United States. RMA Worldwide acquired International Limousine’s assets, employees, and customer contracts as of May 10, 2019. The business will operate under the RMA Worldwide brand.

Founded in 1988 with one sedan, RMA Worldwide has grown to become the region’s leading transportation providers and has been recognized for exceptional client service, including awards from Bethesda Magazine and industry trade magazines. Today, RMA Worldwide provides chauffeured transportation for Fortune 500 executives, as well as individuals working in finance, media, entertainment, sports, university athletics, and destination management companies. RMA’s extensive fleet includes new executive sedans, SUVs, deluxe touring vans, and more than 100 late model mini- and motorcoach buses that service its more than 30 charter and shuttle contracts with colleges/universities, private schools, municipalities, and building owners.

“The combination of RMA and International Limousine Service creates a strong transportation option for businesses, associations, and individuals in the Greater Baltimore-Washington region,” said RMA Worldwide CEO Robert Alexander. “In combination, we can provide a premium quality service for every client’s transportation needs—whether it’s operating shuttles, providing executive transportation, or motorcoaches.”

International Limousine Service grew from five vehicles in 1980 to more than 120 today, also providing executive sedan, limousine, bus, and shuttle services.

“The strategic merging of our two companies creates an incredibly strong portfolio, said International Limousine Service CEO Richard Kane. “It means that our clients will benefit from a more diverse product offering and high-levels of customer service, something which is being lost with the ride sharing model.”

The combined business will serve more than 6,000 clients and transport nearly 12,000,000 passengers in more than 400 vehicles each year. The privately held company will employ more than 550 people in the region and will operate facilities in Baltimore, North Bethesda, Washington, DC, and will soon open additional facilities in Richmond, Va. RMA projects more than $65M in revenue this year and will continue to provide customers with worldwide service through its affiliate network in 600 cities around the globe.

“The market for chauffeured transportation has grown tremendously over the last few years,” added Alexander. “We realized that with the expanded market there is an incredible opportunity for a provider who is focused on service quality and safety. We want to be the first choice for chauffeured services, whether it’s running shuttles between campuses or driving executives to the airport. We can now deploy vehicles more quickly, provide more transportation choices, and do it with white glove service.”
