Monarch Landscape Companies Acquires DynaServ Florida

Partnership expands Monarch’s national footprint into Florida and the Southeast, while bolstering Monarch’s subcontractor management capabilities

LOS ANGELES & DAVIE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Los Angeles-based Monarch Landscape Companies (“Monarch”), a leading national provider of high-quality commercial landscaping services, announced today the acquisition of DynaServ Florida, LLC (“DynaServ”), a 30-year, family-owned and operated full-service commercial landscape company based in Davie, FL, that services commercial properties, municipalities, HOAs, and utilities. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Founded in 1994, DynaServ is a full-service provider of landscape maintenance, enhancement, arbor care, water and irrigation, fertilization and pest control, snow and ice removal, and disaster recovery services. With over 200 employees and a network of over 100 contractors, the company services clients across 12 mostly Southern states, reaching as far north as North Carolina and as far west as New Mexico.

“DynaServ represents both a strategic and cultural fit for the Monarch platform, and we’re excited to welcome the entire DynaServ team into our organization,” noted Brian Helgoe, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Monarch. “The addition of DynaServ marks a critical milestone in our efforts to expand Monarch’s footprint and diversify revenues, and we expect to accelerate growth in existing and adjacent geographies, while building upon DynaServ’s significant subcontractor network to better service regional and national customers.”

Brad Gruber will continue to drive strategic direction and business development for Monarch’s Florida operation, while Sean Foreman and Douglas Tripodo will lead self-perform and subcontractor operations, respectively.

“In exploring our strategic alternatives, Monarch stood out as a national operator with considerable momentum behind its business; but more importantly, Monarch stood out as an ‘employer of choice,’” noted Brad Gruber. “Monarch’s appreciation for their people and their team-first approach will allow us to build upon our legacy at DynaServ, while reinforcing a critical differentiator that will facilitate our continued growth under Monarch. On behalf of the entire DynaServ team, we’re excited to join the Monarch family of companies.”

Monarch has been an active acquirer in high-end landscaping companies, and over the past two years has completed six add-on acquisitions, including partnerships with Texscape Services based in Houston, Texas, and Environmental Designs based in Brighton, Colorado. The acquisition of DynaServ closely followed Monarch’s acquisition of True North Landscapes, a Santa Rosa, California-based full-service landscape operator focused on sustainability and innovation.

“We’re creating a national presence to service both our local clients as well as national commercial customers, and we continue to pursue acquisitions in new and existing geographies,” added Helgoe. “We see ourselves as a preferred acquirer and have made considerable investments in our platform to continually enhance operations, drive employee retention and growth, and help our acquired companies reach new customers within their markets.”
