Established Lawn Fertilizing Company – 250+ Recurring Accounts
Business Description
Established lawn fertilization and turf care company serving Orange, Ulster, and Dutchess counties in New York's Hudson Valley, with routes concentrated in Newburgh, New Windsor, and Cornwall-on-Hudson.
The business runs on annual recurring service programs across 250+ active accounts, primarily residential and paid by card. It has near-zero voluntary customer attrition over the trailing eighteen months and consistent double-digit growth. Growth has come mainly through referrals and reputation, on advertising spend of under 1% of revenue, and no single customer represents a material share of revenue.
Service programs cover fertilization, weed control, grub and tick prevention, and fall aeration and overseeding. Revenue follows two busy seasons: spring and summer (March to August) and fall (September to November).
Route density is the core of the model. Adding accounts inside existing routes has grown revenue without a matching rise in product costs, which gives a buyer with overlapping route coverage clear room to add accounts profitably.
Operations are systemized. Customer records, service scheduling, and invoicing run through cloud-based software integrated with QuickBooks, giving a buyer clean account-level history.
The company operates under a New York DEC pesticide business registration with a certified commercial applicator (Category 3a, Ornamental and Turf). Buyers must hold or obtain the required New York DEC credentials.
Filed tax returns, account-level revenue history, and retention data are available to qualified buyers under a signed confidentiality agreement.
