This year’s Lawn & Landscape Top 100 is based on 2014 revenue from landscape profit centers, as reported by each of the listed companies. Companies on this list earned a total revenue of $8,026,808,707 in 2014, which is an increase of $776,283,627, or 11 percent, over 2013. Companies on the list also reported total employment (seasonal plus year-round employees) of 86,255.
The list is comprised of companies from 31 states and three firms in Canada. From the oldest company on the list – Davey Tree Expert Co., in Kent, Ohio, founded in 1880, to the youngest company, BrightView, founded in 2014 – these landscape professionals all share the same challenge: staying productive and profitable. Doing that day after day requires innovative thinking, and that’s what Toro is all about. For more than 100 years, Toro has been focused on listening to, and serving, customers by finding new ways to help them increase productivity and profits.
We never stop working on new innovations that can make a difference on the bottom lines of our customers’ businesses. And our local dealers are just as focused on helping our customers grow their business with the right equipment, service and support.
As you look at this list, we hope you’ll be encouraged and energized by the possibilities. Just as these companies are growing and raising their revenues, you can achieve your goals – and Toro is ready to serve you with the equipment you need to get there.
We hope you have a very safe and profitable year!
