"We admire these visionary businesses that are leading the way in their respective industries and see the value of being a veteran-friendly business."—John Krotec, Founder of GreenZone Hero

SARASOTA, FL (PRWEB) MARCH 30, 2017

GreenZone Hero enlists all 12 of Everglades Farm Equipment locations in Central and South Florida into the growing veteran-friendly commerce community. GreenZone Hero honored Everglades Farm Equipment with 4 of the 5 patented GreenZone Hero medals as Everglades Farm Equipment offers discounts to veterans, employs veterans, hires disabled veterans and is a business that makes donations of time, money, or other resources to organizations that serve veterans. The GreenZone Hero mission is to recognize businesses that honor our veterans and help those businesses succeed.

Everglades Farm Equipment President and CEO, John O. Schlechter, strives to serve the agricultural producers, farmers, nurseries, and commercial landscape management companies by focusing on customer service and satisfaction and treating customers right. Those values stem from family values–to treat everyone like family. Schlechter is also a visionary and believes in grass roots American movements and joined GreenZone Hero as the first GreenZone Hero veteran-friendly farming equipment dealer in America. As one of the largest John Deere dealers in the world, Schlechter is proud to support the GreenZone Hero movement.
