Commercial gardening firm celebrates birthday milestone

ENVIROCARE Maintenance Solutions, a commercial gardening and grounds maintenance business, is celebrating its tenth anniversary with record results.  

Posting a 13% year-on-year revenue increase, the company has reached the £4m milestone and is on course to double that within the next three years.

The Leyland business, which started out with just two staff,  has a national reach with 17 regional depots countrywide and it  employs more than 150 people, with additional seasonal workers.

BAck in 2005 managing director David Yates had a clear vision to grow a nationwide grounds maintenance business that would add value to the businesses it served. Serving sectors ranging from hospitality, to property management and from schools and educational facilities to business parks, notable longstanding clients include RMG, Whittle Jones, Aldi, Greene King pubs and Lancashire County Council.  

To drive the three year growth plan, Envirocare is investing in a new work management system to streamline operations, and has also recently appointed new members to the sales and marketing teams to drive nationwide sales.

Managing director David Yates said: “It’s been an exciting journey over the past 10 years, but we’ve only just reached base camp.  We’ve continued to grow, even through times of national economic turmoil and budget cuts.  

“I’m really proud when we grow our business with existing clients, as well as winning new accounts, as that’s the best testament to our dedication to ensuring our services exceed customers’ expectations and are great value for money.”
