THE HISTORY OF PRESSURE WASHING: EVOLUTION OF AN INDUSTRY, PART ELEVEN: CHANGING FACES AND HUMAN RESOURCES

摘要

"In the 1970s and '80s, most pressure washing businesses operated within a 60-mile radius of their home base," recalls Roy Chappell, Chappell Supply, Oklahoma City, OK. "Most were mom-and-pop operations with a couple of employees, and they considered it a huge success if they grossed $200,000 a year. Today, it is not uncommon to find companies with two or three locations, a dozen employees, and annual revenues in excess of $4 million. Some exceed $20 million in sales per year and have more than 80 employees. This is amazing growth, considering the economic challenges of the last two decades."
