Spark Acquires LSM Outdoor Power In Texas

Spark Dealer Group, a rapidly growing network of outdoor power equipment dealerships, announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire LSM Outdoor Power. LSM Outdoor Power is a Texas-based, multi-location dealership serving professional landscapers and commercial customers in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

With this addition, Spark Dealer Group now operates more than 10 dealerships nationwide as a consolidator of founder-led, high-performing dealerships.

As part of the transaction, Justin Houston, founder of LSM Outdoor Power, will join Spark Dealer Group as national sales manager. In this role, Houston will focus on strengthening relationships with commercial landscapers nationwide, improving sales execution across the network, and working closely with original equipment manufacturers to support continued growth.

Following the acquisition, Spark will continue to operate both the ATS Outdoors and LSM Outdoor Power brands. The company plans to maintain existing operating teams, local market identities, and customer relationships while supporting the businesses through shared resources and centralized capabilities across the network.

The transaction is expected to close in January 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. Financial terms are not being disclosed.
