THE DAVEY BULLETIN
Mickman Brothers, Inc. of Ham Lake, Minn., has joined
the Davey family of brands.
Mickman Brothers, founded in 1975 by brothers Chris and
John Mickman, provides landscape, irrigation, landscape
maintenance and snow removal services to the greater
Minneapolis-St. Paul area. Mickman Brothers also offers a
premier garden center for their local clientele at which they
grow most of the annuals and perennials they offer. Their
family Mickman Christmas business, originated by John
and Chris's grandmother, has a national customer base
of non-profit organizations and corporate clients. Mickman
Brothers' dedicated team of approximately 80 year-round
employees is enhanced by roughly 200 seasonal employees.
All services will continue as part of the Mickman Brothers
team within Davey's Commercial Landscape Services
(CLS) service line.
"Davey has been the leader in the green industry for
almost 150 years, so its knowledge of the industry and
breadth of services will help propel Mickman Brothers
to the highest levels of service to our clients," said John
Mickman, CEO. "We are all thrilled with the career growth
opportunities this merger will offer to our professional
staff of dedicated employees. The Mickman Brothers team
is thrilled about joining forces with our new Davey team
members as we continue to grow our product and service
offerings locally and nationally."
Mark Svozil, vice president and general manager, CLS,
said, "One of the strongest attributes we admire about
Mickman Brothers, in addition to its amazing corporate
DAVEY GROWS IN MINNESOTA
culture, is its passion for supplying the highest quality
products and services to its clients, a key value shared
by Davey. Prior to this merger, Davey had already made
a strong commitment to the Minneapolis-St. Paul market,
making this the fifth location for Davey. Adding a brand the
caliber of Mickman Brothers highlights Davey's ongoing
commitment to the region and should be great not only
for Mickman Brothers' clients but Davey's as well. I am
so excited to watch Mickman's employees grow in their
careers through promotions and educational opportunities,
as well as become employee owners of Davey."
Welcome to the Davey family!
