SavATree, a nationwide landscape company with headquarters in Bedford Hills, New York, has acquired Park City-based Wasatch Arborists. This will be SvATree’s 39th branch and its first location in Utah. The company said the purchased continues its efforts to grow in the western half of the country.
“I’m super-excited to be working with so many people who have the same small-town, customer-first approach that we do,” said Wasatch Arborists owner and arborist Ryan Torcicollo, who took over the company in 2015 after an extensive career on the East Coast. “We’re ready to hit the ground running in 2020.”{mprestriction ids="1,3"}
“This merger has taken us one step closer toward realizing our strategic goals in the area,” said Daniel van Starrenburg, CEO of SavATree, “and we couldn’t have found a more well-regarded partner. The resort community around Park City has long benefited from the care of Wasatch Arborists. We have big plans for the area, including introducing an expanded range of service options, like lawn care, plant healthcare and organic alternatives.”
Torcicollo built Wasatch Arborists from a one-man, backyard operation to a large tree-care team in Summit, Wasatch and Salt Lake counties. He and business partner Jessica Torcicollo, along with operations manager Caleb O’Brien, arborist Charlie Haer and the company’s field specialists, will continue to run the company in Utah.{/mprestriction}
