“Entomo has tripled in size since our initial investment, reflecting the strength of its platform and the significant growth opportunity in pest control services,” said CenterOak Managing Partner Jason Sutherland. “Troy’s experience scaling multi-location consumer services businesses makes him the right leader to build on Entomo’s momentum and execute its strategic priorities.”
Lindbeck has more than 15 years of senior leadership experience and a track record of scaling multi-location businesses. He previously served as president and CEO of Amenity Pool Services, a provider of pool maintenance, repair and renovation services.
