In The Green: On a commercial level, mowing is a key element to a suite of maintenance services

摘要

Landscape maintenance contractors who cut their teeth in the residential market may consider the commercial property arena and see lots of green - in both grass and profits. It's a natural progression for landscape contractors. In fact, nearly a quarter of the average contractor's annual sales come from tending commercial and industrial properties in 2007, according to Lawn & Landscape research. In addition, contractors indicate they derive about 40 percent of their average sales from lawn mowing andmaintenance work and that lawn maintenance's gross sales revenue increased by 12 percent from 2006 to 2007, the data says.
