Hitch Hotel Inc.

Geoff Patterson, President/CEO, is no stranger to hard work and seeing his ideas through to fruition. He has spent his life building companies from the ground up with his visionary leadership and passion. For 25 years he has built, owned and operated a successful body shop in Valencia, California. However, on February 11, 2006, while attending a Motocross race, he and his son Geremy witnessed the racer James Marshall crash. This prompted him to change the way we look at motorcycle safety forever. He imported the Leatt Neck Brace and distributed it nationwide, creating over $10 million nationally and 17 million worldwide, in sales the first year. 47 million was generated worldwide in 3 years, thus making it a Household name. In 2009, he created Twisted Beverage Company. This popular beverage made it into 11 states and 1,500 stores in just a couple of months before the FDA recommended that caffeine was unsafe to mix with high alcohol content. His most recent and most potentially successful venture yet is his invention of the Hitch Hotel. The Outdoor Industry is one of the most overlooked economic multi-hundred billion-dollar industries in the nation! Geoff’s expertise in building from the ground up – whether it is a vehicle or a multi-million dollar business – will lead Hitch Hotel into the top ranks of this ever-growing mega-industry, thereby again creating a product with Household name status.
