17th.jpg (10140 bytes) From 1978 until 1992, Landscape Creations, Inc.’ founder Vic Hannan ran a profitable small business that bought and sold sand, gravel, soils and rocks which he delivered in large trucks. In 1992 he purchased a 4.5 acre lot, complete with a 60 year-old house and covered with blackberry bushes. After clearing out and cleaning up the property, Vic opened his landscape materials supply yard in August of that year.

Starting with very little, he began to build his business working diligently seven days a week. (with a $6,500 monthly truck expense, it wasn’t always easy!) In fact, Vic’s new wife Deborah began helping him with the business, and with her help Vic persevered, building the yard into the largest of its kind in the area. Most importantly, sales climbed.

During the winter of 1995, Vic made a move that would change his life, purchasing a company that had a patented custom molding process, manufacturing specialized concrete stepping stones and lawn edgings (now known as Landscape Creations, Inc.). At the onset, Vic encountered his fair share of problems with employees, quality control, and irreparable damage to the original molds.

It took some time, but again, Vic persevered. He succeeded in restoring the high-level of product quality, reorganized parts of the operation, and perfected the business plan.Landscape Creations, Inc. was on track and moving forward. The next stop? Franchising.
