Stay Green has acquired JH O'Brien, a commercial landscape company operating throughout southern and central California.
The transaction includes the transfer of JH O'Brien's fleet, equipment, operating locations and client relationships. An additional 40 team members will join the Stay Green team.
A defining element of the transaction is the transition of a complex, multi-site portfolio of 500 retail properties.
"This acquisition represents a strategic step forward in our long-term growth plan," says Chris Angelo, CEO of Stay Green. "JH O'Brien brings a strong operational foundation, experienced teams, and a sophisticated multi-location client scope that aligns well with Stay Green's capabilities. We are excited to welcome their team and continue delivering reliable, high-quality service across these properties."
Strategically, the acquisition expands Stay Green's geographic reach, deepening its presence in San Diego County, the Coachella Valley, and Santa Barbara County, while reinforcing Stay Green's Southern California operating platform.
"Our team is proud of what we've built at JH O'Brien, and we believe Stay Green is well positioned to take this work forward," says Deborah L. O'Brien, founder of JH O'Brien. "Their emphasis on operational discipline, people, and service consistency makes this a strong fit for our employees and the properties they will serve."
