Built on Legacy, Driven by People

In 2013, Chris’s son, Ben Brown, stepped into a leadership role and continued to expand the company’s reach while preserving the hands-on, relationship-driven culture it was built on.

In February 2025, industry veteran Jay Schwartz became the company’s majority shareholder, bringing strategic growth experience and fresh perspective. Ben Brown remains a key shareholder and oversees daily operations, ensuring continuity in quality, culture, and client experience.
