Commercial landscaping is a thriving industry that continues to expand and evolve. Juniper Landscaping has acquired Panama City-based Rip's Professional Lawn Care, extending into the Florida Panhandle market for the first time. This strategic move allows Juniper to broaden its service offerings and reach new clients in the region. Similarly, BrightView Holdings, Inc. has acquired Syringa Landscape, LLC, a commercial landscaping company based in Boise, Idaho. These acquisitions demonstrate the competitive nature of the commercial landscaping industry and the importance of expanding into new territories.
In another acquisition announcement, Riverside Company-backed EverSmith Brands acquires commercial landscaping franchise U.S. Lawns from BrightView Holdings Inc. This transaction highlights the fluidity of the commercial landscaping market and the potential for growth through strategic partnerships. Additionally, Bland Landscaping Company, a commercial landscaping service with an office in the greater Wilmington area, expanded into the aquatic landscaping sector, showcasing the diversification of services within the industry.
Starting a landscaping business requires careful planning and execution. Key steps include creating a business plan, registering the business, obtaining a tax identification number, and opening a business account. By following these steps, aspiring entrepreneurs can establish a successful landscaping business and compete in the competitive marketplace. David J. Frank Landscape Contracting is a prime example of a landscaping company that started small and grew into an award-winning business. Founded in 1959 by a lawn-mowing boy wonder, the company now provides lawn care, landscape maintenance, and snow removal services for a wide range of commercial properties.
