Landscaper Pro appointed Anthony Amato to national sales manager of its Chestnut Ridge location in Rockland County, New York.
Amato has more than 30 years of experience in the landscaping, grounds and property management industries. Among other designations, he served as president of West-Rock Landscape Contractors, which he also founded in 1981, and Amato Landscape & Grounds Management Co. Most recently he was a general manager of facilities management working with clients including the New York Yankees, Mount Sinai Medical Campus, New Jersey Transit Authority, Standard Parking Corp. and Central Parking Systems in New York City, New Jersey and Philadelphia.
“When Landscaper Pro contacted me I was excited to hear of the new business development plan and had no idea my future was about to take a dramatic turn,” Amato said. “When the offer came to head the sales department, I was thrilled by the opportunity. This will allow me to apply everything I’ve learned in the landscaping industry the past three decades to this innovative concept of cost effective buying power for all in the landscape and related industries.”
