This acquisition is a critical part of SiteOne’s ongoing venture to enhance its nationwide reach, strengthen its presence in key markets, and offer a comprehensive range of landscape products and services to customers across the U.S. and Canada.
“The acquisition of Pacific adds a strategically located site in the Bay Area, allowing us to better serve our combined customers,” said Doug Black, Chairman and CEO of SiteOne Landscape Supply. “This is a significant step forward in our venture to expand our offerings and provide landscape professionals with comprehensive products and services.”

Drew McMillan, President of Devil Mountain, expressed his excitement about the acquisition and the opportunity to continue Pacific Nurseries’ long-standing legacy. “The Baldocchi family has built an excellent nursery that has been a cornerstone of our industry for 28 years,” McMillan said. “We are honored to continue their tradition of excellence, service, and commitment to employees as we integrate their team into the Devil Mountain family.
