History
Since 1986, U.S. Lawns has dominated the commercial grounds industry by combining national brand strength with a network of locally owned franchises. Using this model, we set the standard for both performance and service in commercial landscaping.
From our home office in Orlando, FL, we proudly select and train community leaders to do business wearing the U.S. Lawns star. Today, a dedicated team of men and women in over 260 locations make up our franchisee network. All are equipped with the processes and standards you’d expect from a national chain. All are united by a passion for service to our neighbors. Your turf is our lawn.
Key to our brand story are our values. When we first started, we knew that building our brand based on what we valued would lead to success, not only for us, but for our franchisees as well. The following are the values we built our business on, starting 30 years ago:
- Legacy
- Community
- Stability
- Discipline
- Toughness
- Order
- Americana
- Nature
- Responsiveness
- Simplicity
- Service
- Environmentalism
When you join the U.S. Lawns franchise family, you will have all the independence of a business owner without taking on the risk by yourself. Take pride in knowing that you are part of something bigger than yourself and become a U.S. Lawns franchise owner.
Ideal Candidate
Business ownership isn’t for everyone. U.S. Lawns looks for dedicated individuals who are service-oriented, in pursuit of excellence, and who care about making a difference in their communities. Landscape industry experience is not necessary. In fact, our franchisees come from a variety of backgrounds and possess a wide range of different skill sets.
Let’s be clear about one thing: if you envision yourself riding around in circles on a lawn mower, this may not be the right fit for you. We are looking for business minded individuals who desire to work ON their business from a management level rather than work IN the business on a day-to-day basis.
Important skills that lead to success in this business include:
- Self-Motivation: Do you have the inner drive to succeed in business?
- Leadership Skills: Can you manage, delegate and lead an organization?
- Service Mentality: Do you enjoy helping to make others' lives better?
- Good Communication Skills: How comfortable do you feel interacting with professionals and promoting your business within the community?
