About U.S. Lawns
U.S. Lawns is now a franchise of EverSmith brands, the platform for B2B Commercial Facilities franchises (including MilliCare, Prism Specialties, The SEALS, Kitchen Guard and Clintar). U.S. Lawns is the nation's leading commercial lawncare and landscaping franchise with more than 215 locations from coast to coast (includes 127 ownership groups as of May 2026). Our franchise opportunity allows you to join the highly profitable Landscaping Services industry that produces more than $153+ billion annually! Sixty percent of our franchisees started with little to no experience. Our services are essential and our customers sign annual contracts which produce recurring revenue for our franchisees. By joining U.S. Lawns, you can make an impact by improving your community and improving the lives of yourself and employees. Our company was founded in 1986 on the premise that commercial customers wanted and needed to develop a working relationship with their local landscape maintenance contractor. However, local landscape contractors did not always have the necessary resources to satisfy the demands of these customers. That's where the U.S. Lawns concept is the perfect fit. Our franchisees can access and use the support, resources, and professionalism of a large national corporation, while still maintaining a local owner's knowledge of, and dedication to, the community. This unique mix helps separate us from the competition and creates and unprecedented opportunity. No lawncare or landscaping experience is necessary. We provide world class support and training and are committed to 100% franchisee satisfaction. U.S. Lawns offers 3 different models to cater to each franchisee, we have an owner-operator model, semi-absentee model, and a conversion model for someone who already owns an existing lawncare business. Our services are a cut above the rest, and include the following: • Mowing, Edging & Weeding • Lawn Renovation, Aeration & Dethatching • Arbor Pruning, Trimming & Care • Bed Preparation & Mulching • Seasonal Color Design & Installation • Irrigation Design & Management • Fertilization & Pest Control • Snow & Ice Management Our Clients • Commercial Office Buildings • Retail Centers • Apartment Communities • Homeowners Associations • Banks • Storage Facilities • Malls & Restaurants • Hospitals • Hotels & Restaurants • Municipalities Item 19 Financials (This information is pulled directly from our 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document). • Franchised Territories: 171 (As reported on the Item 19 of the 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document; April 2025) • Average Unit Sales Volume (2024): $1,391,588 • Average Unit Sales Volume - Top Quartile/25% (2024): $3,282,278 • Average Unit Sales Volume by Time Period 5+ Years (2024): $1,464,098 • Top Performing Territory Revenue (2024): $9,293,049 (Up 4.6% from 2023 FDD) • Bottom Performing Territory Revenue (2024): $26,269 • Average Gross Profit (2024): $419,454 (Up 3.2% from 2023 FDD) • Top Performing Territory Gross Profit (2024): $3,171,502 • Average Gross Profit by Time Period 5+ Years (2024): $438,154 • Net Profit (2024): 15.30% Low-Cost Investment • As low as $113,000 to invest.
