🎙️ Jacob Ohe: Turning Parking Lots into Profit Centers with Impark

Mastering Property Management

In this episode, we’re joined by Jacob Ohe, Senior Vice President, Central Canada at Impark — one of North America’s largest and most recognized parking management companies.

Impark has been shaping the parking landscape since 1962, operating thousands of facilities across North America under the Reimagined Parking network. Jacob shares how Impark partners with property owners and asset managers to transform parking from a basic necessity into a strategic revenue driver — all while enhancing the customer experience from the moment they leave home.

Jacob dives into:

✅ How parking has become the second biggest revenue generator for many properties

✅ Why seamless parking is the first and last impression of any great building or experience

✅ How technology and automation are redefining the parking industry

✅ The leadership lessons Jacob learned as a varsity volleyball captain — and why there’s “no room for B players” on his teams

“Parking is the first and last impression of a building or experience. Whether you’re going to a show or catching a flight, that journey starts before you even leave home.” — Jacob Ohe

Whether you’re in property management, asset management, or operations, this episode will shift the way you see parking — not just as infrastructure, but as an integral part of revenue, experience, and brand.
