Standard Party Rentals acquires the Modesto, Calif., branch of Classic Party Rentals

Standard Party Rentals, Richmond, Calif., has acquired the Modesto, Calif., location of Classic Party Rentals. The agreement includes bringing the employees of the Modesto branch into Standard Party Rentals, according to an announcement on the company’s Facebook page.

“This is a great opportunity to expand our brand, keep industry skilled talent employed and maintain long-term client relationships,” Matt Guelfi, president and owner of Standard Party Rentals, said in the post. “There will be an immediate infusion of new products and resources added to the Modesto facility.”

The acquisition follows an announcement earlier in July that Classic Party Rentals, at one time the largest event rental and services provider in the United States, was selling all of its tenting assets. Recent consolidation moves have seen Classic locations and assets acquired by other event rental companies around the nation.
