GREEN SALES CO - Key Persons


John Greenleaf

Job Titles:
  • Retired
John Greenleaf retired in 1986 and Tim Purchased the remaining portion of the business. In the early 1990's it became more of a family business as Tim's two sons joined the company. For the most part, business continued as usual and each year Green Sales grew a little more. With an ever increasing need for space, both storage and office, a search for a new location began. Several locations were considered but none of them really fit the bill. Tim had always admired a particular location and coincidentally it was for sale. The 120,000 sf. building was oversized for the current needs but lack of expansion space had always been a problem. Some retrofitting would also need to take place to make it feel more like home. The price had kept it out of early consideration but after some number crunching the deal had possibilities. In November 1993 the Yeomans family closed the transaction on the new location at 2172 Seymour Avenue.
