NewcrestImage Finalizes Merger and Brings All Three Companies
 Under the Same Banner


Frisco, Tex., May 31, 2013. The highly anticipated merger of Newcrest Management and Image Hospitality has been completed, and the two companies have now become NewcrestImage, a vertically integrated company offering a broad portfolio of services in hotel development, construction, and management. The alliance, which had included Newcrest Development, Brightman Construction and Image Hospitality, has been rebranded, with all three groups under the NewcrestImage banner. 

Since the initial merger announcement in February 2013, the two companies have been preparing an integration plan designed to rapidly combine the synergies of the two companies into one. The plan is now substantially complete, with the final piece remaining, being the new office headquarters.

The company principals' new roles have been established:
  • Mehul Patel - Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
  • Chirag Patel - Chief Financial Officer
  • Mital Patel - Chief Administrative Officer
  • Yogi Patel - Chief Operating Officer, Hotel Management

  • Sanjay Patel - Chief Operating Officer, Construction Project Manager
"The combination of the two companies represents a new moving force in the hospitality industry. We are committed on building our best-in-class portfolio to offering the best management services at our hotels," said Mehul Patel, Chairman and CEO and NewcrestImage.

NewcrestImage is expanding their new company in exciting ways.  They have been working on numerous hotel deals including new development, construction, and public-private partnerships with city governments.
