Nathan —

Nathan has always had a knack for landscaping. But it wasn't until his mother gave him his first Fisher-Price mower that this two year old's green thumb sprouted.

Nathan's Gnomes started off in an super niche market: meticulous maintenance of astroturf doormats. After scooping up 500 customers the first summer in business, the Gnomes branch out, adding three-season patio and indoor/outdoor carpet services.

Given the Gnomes nose for business, Nathan began taking jobs using gas powered mowers and cutting real grass - quickly surpassing his rivals in affordability, quality of work, and customer satisfaction.

Today with 139 horticultural patents, 127 nurseries nation-wide, over ten-thousand franchises, and service contracts for McDonald's, Burger King, Chick-Fil-A, and all Federally owned properties and National Parks, Nathan's Gnomes is the nations largest landscaping service.

With gross revenue of $130 billion dollars in 1999, over $200 billion in 2000 and 2001, and projected revenue of $380 billion in 2002, Time Magazine has award Nathan with it's prestigious "Young Entrepreneurs Award"; placing his contagious smile on the cover of the August issue.

Needless to say... with just three years under his belt, Nathan's Gnomes can only grow from here.
