Employee Ownership at Accent Landscape Contractors, Inc.

Built by Our People. Owned by Our People.

At Accent Landscape Contractors, we don’t just work here — we own what we build.

Accent is proud to be a 100% employee-owned company through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). That means the people installing, managing, and maintaining our projects every day have a direct stake in the company’s long-term success.

What Does Employee-Owned Mean?

An Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) is a retirement benefit that gives eligible employees ownership in the company — at no cost to them.

As Accent grows, the value of the company grows — and our employee-owners share in that success. Ownership is earned over time and becomes part of an employee’s long-term financial future.

When Accent succeeds, our people succeed.

Why Accent Chose Employee Ownership

Accent transitioned to employee ownership to ensure the company’s future stays rooted in the values that built it:

Accountability
Quality workmanship
Long-term thinking
Respect for the people doing the work

Becoming employee-owned allows us to:

Preserve our company culture
Reward loyalty and performance
Create stability for employees, clients, and partners
Keep Accent strong for the next generation

This wasn’t a short-term decision — it was a commitment to longevity.

What Employee Ownership Means for Our Team

Being employee-owned creates a different mindset on every job site and in every office.

Our employee-owners:

Take pride in the quality of their work
Think long-term, not just job-to-job
Share responsibility for safety, efficiency, and results
Build careers — not just paychecks

Ownership reinforces what we already believe:
The best companies are built by people who care.

What It Means for Our Clients & Partners

For our clients, employee ownership means:

Consistency and stability
Teams who are invested, not temporary
Decisions made with long-term outcomes in mind
A contractor who stands behind their work

When you work with Accent, you’re working with owners, not just employees.

Employee Ownership Is Part of Our Culture

Our ESOP complements our commitment to:

Training and leadership development
Safety and accountability
Community involvement
Career growth from the field to leadership

Ownership strengthens the culture we’ve built — it doesn’t replace it.
