UOVO Expands Its Art Storage Solutions in Central Texas
UOVO Art, Fashion, Wine has recently made significant strides in its mission to provide premier storage and logistics solutions for fine art, collectibles, and archives by acquiring Vault Fine Art Services, a prominent player in the fine art service landscape in Central Texas. This strategic acquisition not only strengthens UOVO's influence in a crucial cultural region but also marks a pivotal expansion in its national network of over 30 facilities across the United States.
Strengthening Texas Presence
The acquisition of Vault Fine Art Services positions UOVO firmly within the Austin and San Antonio markets, vital components of one of the nation's fastest-developing art communities. Historically, UOVO has served the Texas art clientele from its existing locations in Dallas and Houston; Vault's integration allows for a more comprehensive and accessible array of services for art collectors, institutions, and artists throughout the state.
Founded in 2012 by Robert Boland and his partners, Vault Fine Art Services has built a reputation for offering meticulous care and personalized services. This includes climate-controlled storage, professional packing and crating, transportation, installation, and collection management. Vault has garnered trust from private collectors, renowned artists, and various institutions, emphasizing a hands-on client approach integral to its operations.
Commitment to Excellence
UOVO's acquisition is rooted in a shared ethos of providing unparalleled stewardship and long-lasting care for significant art collections. Cyril Pietrafesa, a board member at UOVO, articulated the strategic rationale behind this expansion: “Incorporating Vault into our portfolio aligns with our existing presence in Dallas and Houston and greatly enhances our ability to serve collectors in Austin and San Antonio. Vault has garnered an exceptional reputation, and we intend to uphold the values and relationships that have led to its success while solidifying UOVO's ties with Texas's vibrant arts community.”
The integration of Vault's services under the UOVO brand will not only retain the established expertise of the Vault team but also unlock access to UOVO’s extensive capabilities. Clients will benefit from features like a proprietary client portal, a national shuttle network, white-glove collection management, and international shipping solutions, complementing Vault's well-regarded regional services.
Robert Boland emphasized the importance of this transition, stating, “Since our inception, our focus has been on thoughtful care and nurturing long-lasting relationships. By merging with UOVO, we can elevate our offerings to clients while remaining deeply rooted in the Central Texas art scene.”

UOVO Art, Fashion, Wine continues to position itself as the leading luxury provider for the storage and logistical needs of fine art, fashion, and wine collections. With its specialized facilities designed specifically for collection management, UOVO expertly addresses the complex needs of both world-class commercial and personal collections.
With this latest acquisition, UOVO is not just expanding its footprint; it is reinforcing its commitment to create a tailored and sophisticated experience for all clients.
