U.S. Lawns Unveils Strategic Expansion Plans for State of Ohio

OHIO – U.S. Lawns, a leading grounds maintenance and landscape franchise, recently revealed details from its 2020 expansion plans slated for the Midwest. The only franchise to offer an exclusive commercial property focus in grounds maintenance, U.S. Lawns will bring 10 locations to Ohio over the next three years. The brand is specifically targeting areas such as Greater Cincinnati, Columbus and Cleveland. With the overall goal of opening 30 new franchises in 2020, U.S. Lawns identified The Buckeye State as a receptive market – six successful franchisees already operate in the state – and the brand plans to build off this success in order to set these expansion plans in motion.

The region is grounded by a strong network of surrounding franchisees in states like Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia and Maryland, which is why U.S. Lawns chose Ohio for this aggressive development phase. The brand has also set sights on Hamilton, Elyria, Medina, Akron, Canton and Youngstown for growth. As three locations are anticipated to open next year, both new and existing franchisees stand to benefit from increased brand recognition.

“We’ve lived in the area our whole lives, and have built a business and family here,” shared Tom Curdes, who owned and operated his own snow removal business since 1977 before converting to a U.S. Lawns franchise. “For years we’d looked for systems to run our maintenance business on, and U.S. Lawns gave us the tools to locate commercial clients and processes to service them. Most importantly, their methods are sustainable.”

Known for creating and nurturing longstanding partnerships with community business owners, U.S. Lawns is committed to improving entire communities through its services. Each franchise has experienced and professionally trained team members dedicated to grounds maintenance and client service, which includes listening to clients’ specific needs, providing customized services and working to make sure clients are 100 percent satisfied.

“The Midwest has long been a targeted growth region for U.S. Lawns,” said David Wells, Senior Director of Franchise Recruiting. “Looking to build off the success of our franchisees closer to the east coast, Ohio seemed like a natural next step. The economic opportunity coupled with the fact that communities are already familiar with the U.S. Lawns name have made it a very attractive market to focus our efforts.”

To become a part of the ever-growing $71-billion-a-year-industry, prospective franchisees can expect a total investment range between $59,500 – $131,300 with discounts available for conversion candidates and military veterans. Recession resistant, the U.S. Lawns franchise opportunity includes unparalleled home office support complete with comprehensive training before, during and several months after new franchisees start operating, resulting in a brand standard 100 percent satisfaction guaranteed for both franchisees and clients.
