Our mutual commitment to team, customers, and superior service instills confidence in this partnership. We are going to learn a lot from one another, and I am excited about what the combined businesses will achieve together.”

“We sought out a partner that aligned with our vision and values, while being able to fast-track our growth and provide more opportunities for our team members,” says Jim Proctor. “We wanted an opportunity to remain an integral part of the company we’ve built and to continue our relationship with the many loyal, long-term clients that have helped us grow through the years. Partnering with Ruppert checked all those boxes, and we are excited about what the future holds.”

 “We are looking forward to the support of Ruppert’s proven processes and systems which will enhance customer satisfaction and employee productivity enabling us to continue growing in the Florida market,” adds Tree Amigos CEO Rob Huether.
