Aldo Rotondi began his business career in 1986 with his private Architectural Design/Build company; Rotondi Design & Associates. For 6 years with his design team, he was involved in all aspects of development from commercial developments in the US and Canada, including the redevelopment of a motel and its conversion into a new Super 8 Motel franchise. This project sparked Mr. Rotondi's focus to develop Super 8 Motels in Eastern Canada and along with his partners, formed CF Hospitality, Inc., where he served as Vice President of Development. CF owned the franchise rights to the Super 8 Motel Chain for Eastern Canada and Rotondi assisted in growing the chain from two to twenty-five properties in Eastern Canada, of which, 9 properties were corporately owned by CF Hospitality before the company was sold in 1997 to Westmont Hospitality.
Mr. Rotondi then joined Royop Properties Corporation, a startup development company that Aldo assisted in acquiring the Canadian franchise rights for the Super 8 Motel chain. Royop also developed Wingate Inns. Royop was publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange. By working with together with Cendant Corporation (NYSE:CD), Royop expanded its Super 8 Franchise base from 28 properties to over 60 franchised properties. Mr. Rotondi oversaw Super 8 Franchise Developments for Royop Properties. Mr. Rotondi later left Royop Corporation to focus on his business ventures with Airam Capital Group, Inc., a company that he founded and acts as president. Royop was later acquired by H&R REIT and at the time of the sale to H&R, Royop’s assets exceeded $150 Million. Airam Capital is in the business of seeking out private business opportunities that may be better served as public companies. As principal for various public companies, he seeks out mergers with private companies that will enhance shareholder value.
Airam Capital works together with Nevada Fund, GoPublicToday.com and Management Consulting Group, assisting with strategic investment and acquisition services for companies like Megola in support of investment and M&A focus providing strategic consulting and business development services. |
