Home and small business technology installation and services company Daisy has expanded its northern California footprint by acquiring Hermary’s, a groundbreaking luxury home technology integrator, and the company’s eighth completed acquisition in less than 10 months. Hermary’s brings six decades of expertise, client trust, and innovation to Daisy’s national network of 14 company-owned and franchise locations.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Hermary’s as a Daisy flagship location,” said Daisy’s Co-Founder and CEO Hagan Kappler, who recently won the Gold Stevie Award for Most Innovative Woman of the Year in the Franchising category. “The Hermary’s team brings design expertise, innovation, and a commitment to quality, not to mention their incredible showroom in San Francisco’s design district. We’re honored to partner with a firm with such an impressive legacy, and to pursue new growth opportunities together.”
The iconic San Francisco Bay Area home technology services company was founded and led by Clarence Hermary and has built a strong reputation for cutting-edge technology, outstanding craftsmanship, and commitment to high-quality client services. Hermary himself originally pioneered the designing and building of switches and controls for whole-home audio, followed by the addition of visual technology. Decades later the company continues to thrive, servicing loyal clients and upholding deep connections with leading architects, designers, electricians, and builders in the area.
As Hermary’s integrates with Daisy, Clarence Hermary will step down from his responsibilities at Hermary’s to join Daisy’s team as a senior advisor, and Paul Foley, a long-time Hermary’s leader, will become General Manager.
“After decades of building strong relationships with our clients as well as with the design and builder communities, our partnership with Daisy provides an exciting path forward,” said Hermary. “Joining Daisy allows us to extend our reach while maintaining the values that have guided us for 60 years. This collaboration reinforces our commitment to delivering top-tier connected home experiences that enhance the comfort, security, and sophistication of luxury residences. We look forward to combining our expertise with Daisy’s unique support systems to create even more innovative, customized solutions.”
Daisy’s showrooms are located in Costa Mesa, CA, Pompano Beach, FL, Los Gatos, CA, and now San Francisco, CA, enabling its clients, including interior designers, builders, architects, and homeowners, to experience technology in real-life settings, including striking visual, audio, and lighting experiences that sometimes need to be seen (and heard) to be believed.
Hermary’s expansive space located in San Francisco’s downtown design district features leading technology brands including Control 4, Savant, Lutron, Hunter Douglas, and more, and highlights the latest in luxury technology available to homeowners in the Bay Area.
