News Release – January 19, 2023

The acquisition expands Bartlett in a new market and results in the opening of its 161st local office

January 19, 2023 – Buffalo, NY. – Bartlett Tree Experts, the global leader in scientific tree care for 115 years, is pleased to announce it has entered a new market in Western New York with the acquisition of Haskell Tree Service Inc. in Buffalo.

“This is an exciting acquisition for Bartlett Tree Experts because it allows us to expand our full range of scientific tree care services in Buffalo, New York while continuing to honor our commitment to exceptional safety, science, technology and business,” Jim Ingram, Bartlett Tree Experts President and Chief Operations Officer said. 

Haskell Tree Service was founded by Greg Haskell in 1970. As he prepared to retire and sell his business after 52 years in the industry, Haskell was impressed with Bartlett’s focus on scientific tree and shrub care and the tremendous benefits customers receive thanks to the support of the Bartlett Tree Research Laboratories. 

“There is no question that the Buffalo area needs a company like Bartlett Tree Experts to provide residential and commercial clients with the highest level of scientific tree care,” said Wayne Dubin, Vice President of Bartlett Tree Experts’ Metropolitan Division. “We are so excited to be here.”

Deborah Green, an Arborist Representative who has been with Bartlett Tree Experts since 1998 and was previously based on Long Island, was named the local manager of Bartlett’s new Buffalo office. With the acquisition, Bartlett also gains an experienced Arborist Representative, Dieter Meier, along with six veteran arborists in the field.

The Company’s latest acquisition supports its strategic plan for growth. Bartlett Tree Experts currently operates 161 local offices in the U.S, Canada, the United Kingdom and Ireland, including nine in the state of New York. The opening of its new Buffalo office is Bartlett’s second advancement into a new market in Western New York and the latest in the state since 2018, when the Company acquired Genesee Tree Service in Rochester.
