Monster Tree Service, a Fort Washington, Pa.-based tree service franchise, continues to build on its rapid three-year franchise system growth.

Austin, Texas, businessman Marcus Roach has purchased the rights to five Monster Tree Service territories in central Texas. Roach will be based in the capital city and will launch his first territory in early February.

“I’ve found people here want to feel confident in whom they’re dealing with in service industries,” said Roach. “Monster Tree Service isn’t just about tree or limb removal. We provide a full suite of services including tree and shrub maintenance, plant healthcare and tree planting. Plus, we are licensed and bonded, and take great pride in our professional experience, appearance and attention to detail. We will even make sure to leave the client’s property in an even more pristine condition than we found it.”

Josh Skolnick, CEO and founder of Monster Tree Service, believes Roach is a great fit as the company’s newest Texas-based franchise partner.

“First, Marcus is well known in the Austin area and brings a wealth of business experience to Monster Tree Service,” said Skolnick. “He has been successful in every business he’s been involved in, and he relates very well to people. We are excited about what he will accomplish because he’s the kind of businessman who thrives as a Monster Tree Service franchise partner. Central Texas is a key growth area for Monster Tree Service as more and more people move there and search for a truly professional tree service to take care of their needs on a year-round basis.”

Monster Tree Service has achieved year over year, 5 percent growth since 2009, resulting in a $10-plus million business. The company expects to achieve $100 million in sales in 2021.
