Established in 1975 this regional broker and wholesale distributer of landscape and decorative stone, construction rock, aggregates and sports field materials has been providing Colorado and surrounding states quality materials at competitive rates for over 48 years.

As a wholesale provider of cobbles, boulders, decorative gravels and flagstones, the Company offers the region a wide variety of Colorado sourced stone. Through fair business practices and a low-cost business model, the Company has cultivated a large customer base in the area that keep returning to fulfill their stone and construction material needs.

With deep roots and a solid foundation in the region, the Company has become a trusted partner in the industry and is known for their knowledge and reliability to provide a wide variety of quality stone and construction materials directly to the job site. The Company has several large clients, and many are established, repeat customers.

Their marketing and sales efforts are focused on builders, developers, building contractors, nurseries, stone yards and landscape contractors. The Company also provides products to city, county and state governments. Though customers can be located anywhere, they primarily deliver materials to customers within an 800-mile radius of Denver, CO.

Their reputation for competitive pricing, responsiveness and reliability has provided a steady stream of business. A large portion of new business comes from referrals. Due to the significant increase in fuel and shipping costs to their out-of-state customers, the Company’s financial results in 2022 were impacted. The current listing price reflects the reduced volume of business last year.

Numerous opportunities for growth exist for an energetic, aggressive buyer. Some communities in Colorado are now offering financial incentives to homeowners to replace their lawns with xeriscape plants and landscape materials.

Property Information

Lease

Premises Details:

The Company has a leased storage space at an industrial open space transfer yard that has a 70 foot in-ground track scale with four 275-ton storage bins. There are five additional smaller bins and extensive open areas for storage of bagged and bulk materials. There is an additional rented covered storage/parking bay across from the maintenance shop.

Business Operation

Expansion Potential:

Xeriscaping has become very popular and necessary due to water shortages. Public, private and government sectors are all trending towards using more environmentally friendly landscaping methods to reduce the lawn and plant areas which require costly maintenance. There is a move to utilize natural, low environmental impact materials over man-made products. Shopping centers, stores, restaurants, business or all types, and office complexes utilize easy care, low maintenance stone landscapes around their exteriors and on parking lot islands and in common areas. Cities and counties frequently specify cobbles, boulders and rock mulch for streetscapes and boulevard dividers.
The pandemic has increased the demand for comfortable, easy, maintainable outdoor living areas that integrate with the overall landscape. Outdoor kitchens, open air cooking and comfortable outside entertainment areas are very popular in new builds and increase home values. Common stone counters, pizza ovens, outdoor fireplaces and other similar designs are more prevalent than ever.
