Three years ago, I made the decision to start my own irrigation company. As many of you know, I had 12 years of experience with other companies, but was confident I could build a customer base if I provided fair prices, professional workmanship, and on-time customer support. My goal was to introduce the company in the town in which I grew up (O’Fallon) and eventually build a customer base in surrounding communities.
We started with about 50 customers who continued with me from my former employers, and, to date, have built that to over 250 with almost 15 new installations under contract for this coming year.
To that end, we have doubled our company’s capacity with regard to machinery and have hired several new employees to accommodate the additional work.
We are proud of what we have achieved, but none of this would have been possible without my family’s support, great employees, and our loyal customer base to include the new customers we are blessed to add during the year.
Thanks to everyone –
