LESCO Moving HQs to Cleveland

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The LESCO Inc. lawn-care products company based in suburban Strongsville will move its corporate headquarters and more than 200 jobs to Cleveland in the fall, the company announced jointly with Mayor Jane L. Campbell on Tuesday.

The city will provide $750,000 in the form of a forgivable loan to help pay for relocation costs to the Erieview office tower, Campbell said.

Michael P. DiMino said the new location would better serve company needs and would lead to savings of about $1 million a year.

LESCO, whose clients include the Cleveland Browns and Indians, distributes fertilizers, seed and other lawn products through lawn-care services and stores.
