I am impressed with Bock & Clark’s organic growth in gross revenues from $12 million in 2010 to $39 million in 2016 while maintaining profit margins which were well above industry standards. Our goal will be to continue their organic growth by promoting cross selling opportunities within our existing business lines while focusing on strategic opportunities to increase Bock & Clark’s market share nationwide.
