“Our new relationship with WALLGROW is really a win-win for both organizations,” said David Withers, President and CEO of Jacobsen. “WALLGROW manages some of the top golf properties in Mexico and now they will have easy access to the best equipment to maintain those courses. This is yet another example of multi-course companies turning to Jacobsen for their turf equipment needs”
