Key points
Business description
A landscaping and irrigation contractor doesn’t chase backyard jobs. It works on the hard stuff, such as highways, public projects, and large infrastructure sites. Work comes directly from a subcontractor to major general contractors. In other words, the people running the biggest jobs in the state already know who to call. Includes millions of dollars in owned equipment, so a buyer isn’t starting from scratch or renting machines every time a project begins. The labor model is unionized & flexible. Crews scale up when projects are won and scale back when they’re finished. It isn’t a glamorous business. The equipment is in place, the relationships are established, & the know-how comes with the business. SF11819. AR $350,000
