ParkPro plans to open hundreds of new, hourly truck parking spaces at Amerant Bank Arena, home of the Florida Panthers, this summer. The company, which provides commercial truck parking solutions nationwide, enables carriers to offer drivers secure, reservable, and conveniently located parking in a designated zone at the Sunrise, Florida, property.
Amerant Bank Arena’s new truck parking makes it the first sports venue in the U.S. to provide this level of support for truck drivers. ParkPro will operate through its platform on Platform Science, Apple iOS, and Android, offering on-site security, lighting, and access to nearby hotels and restaurants at many locations. Using ParkPro, transportation and logistics professionals can recover up to 12% of annual productivity lost while searching for truck parking.
"In 2024, we announced the Panthers as our flagship host," Tra Williams, CEO of ParkPro, stated during a speech at the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) Conference in Orlando, Florida. "Since then, we’ve focused on execution—optimizing the platform, refining operations, and ensuring that when we go live, it works in the real world. When ParkPro is officially live, Amerant Bank Arena alone will create parking for up to 200 trucks."
