Pediatric surgeon. Nonprofit board member. Topiary artist. A life well planned allows you to

LIVE YOUR LIFE.

While you may not be a pediatric surgeon volunteering your topiary talents at a children’s hospital – your life is just as unique. Backed by sophisticated resources, a Raymond James financial advisor can help you plan for what’s important to you. That’s LIFE WELL PLANNED. ROBERT W.

THE RACE TO BE N0. 1 “We love Ranking Arizona because we have acquired new clients from the exposure it provides. Being listed within the top firms in our category has given us credibility with business owners and their professional advisors. It works.”

“Ranking Arizona helps in our recruitment of employees and is an important component in creating positive morale. In addition, it adds credibility with everyone we do business with—including clients, prospective clients and vendor partners.”

Jim Afinowich, principal, IBG Fox & Fin Financial Group

Bill Lavidge, CEO, Lavidge

“The Ranking Arizona recognition has led to multiple project awards, peer recognition and, most importantly, the recognition affords each member of the Team an unparalleled sense of pride and the organization as a whole enjoys a stronger morale.” John Brunia, president, Spectra Electrical Services

“The Ranking Arizona recognition is shared with our employees as acknowledgement of the incredible impact they are making in the lives of our customers, as well as in business proposals and marketing collateral. It is a great addition to our overall value proposition as an award-winning and trusted healthcare partner.” David A. Dexter, president and CEO, Sonora Quest Laboratories

Ranking Arizona offers a reason to celebrate during challenging times

PRESIDENT & CEO: MICHAEL ATKINSON PUBLISHER: AMY LINDSEY VICE PRESIDENT OF OPERATIONS: AUDREY WEBB

h, what a year it has been! Congratulations, we made it through 2020 together. It was a year that taught us to be grateful for what we have. We succeeded in getting through lockdowns, restrictions, Zoom meetings gone rogue, and things that got out of our control. Success came in many different ways for us last year. I came across this piece about defining success in this new era of COVID-19, and thought it still holds true for 2021.

SUCCESS To laugh often and love much. To win the respect of intelligent people and the affections of children. To earn the approval of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty. To find the best in others. To give one’s self. To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition. To have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with jubilation. To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded Welcome to the 24th annual edition of Ranking Arizona: The Best of Arizona Business. This publication exemplifies success. Ranking Arizona magazine is the result of Arizona's largest business opinion poll. Participants base their selections on the quality of products and services provided by the companies they vote for. These are the top companies with whom Arizona voters recommend doing business. The bulk of the voting takes place on our website at (azbigmedia.com). The votes are tallied and totaled in August and ranked according to their total number of votes.

VSS Security Services is a 100 percent family owned business for more than 31 years. VSS Security uses the latest technology to the fullest extent to help security officers expand their capabilities for a safe and secure environment of the client’s facilities. VSS Security Services will never waiver from its commitment to maintain team spirit based on pride and mutual respect within the company and for its clients. VSS Security Services believes that customer service is the most important piece to a successful company, not the size of your company. IMPACT OF 2021 TRENDS: “My main concerns will always be terrorism, cybersecurity and the random acts of violence. The other concern is that our industry — that was once made up of the ‘Mom and Pop’ and regional security companies — is being bought up by a select few international companies that are owned by investment groups and it’s changing the dynamics of the industry. Size and cash flow does not produce customer service, which is what VSS Security Services and all the remaining Mom and Pop security companies are about.”

Restaurants: Breakfast

hough Scramble might appear to be a national chain, it is not. Scramble is Arizona grown with Sun Devil pride. So when you dine at Scramble, you aren’t feeding some out-of-state corporate super structure, you’re helping support our local economy, local farmers and vendors, Scramble’s team and their families and the local community that Scramble gives back to. COMPANY STRENGTHS: “Scramble is a fresh look at breakfast and it all begins with using the freshest ingredients around. How we do it is no secret, we pride ourselves on using local farmers and vendors whenever possible. From your first bite to your last, you will taste the difference farm fresh makes.” STRENGTH OF STAFF: “Faster. Fresher. Friendlier. Our staff lives by our company motto to bring Arizona the freshest meals, by a team that truly loves what they do, with a quick casual dining style. Our staff make us who we are and inspire us to be better every day we’re open.” SURPRISING FACT: “That we are not a national chain. Our modern decor, quick casual approach, food presentation and service standards typically require corporate resources. We’re constantly asked who owns Scramble, and most are surprised that we’re just a couple of Arizona guys who’ve found the right way to get things done.”

LAST YEAR

Restaurants: French

hef Jean-Christophe was born in Northeast France and has over 35 years of experience working in famous Michelin star restaurants in France. After a short visit in the U.S. and one night in Scottsdale in 2007, Jean-Christophe Gros and Ségolène Gros fell in love with the city. Their family decided to move to Scottsdale in 2015 to share their passion. Voila French Bistro serves traditional French cuisine with a modern and elegant style. Chef is running the kitchen and his wife, Ségolène, with 25 years in the industry, runs the front of the restaurant. COMPANY STRENGTHS: “The simplicity and authenticity of our cuisine. We treat our guests like family and hope that while they visit and enjoy our food they might close their eyes and feel like they are in France.” STRENGTH OF STAFF: “We take pride in providing the best service to our guests. We train our staff to be attentive and pay attention to the smallest details. We are passionate about serving the best food and we love to share our culinary traditions from France.” OUTLOOK FOR 2021: “We recently hired a new chef, who also moved here from France, Thomas Potier. Thomas worked with Chef Jean-Christophe for many years in France. He specializes in pastries, so we hope to offer new desserts. We are also considering serving breakfast.”

Vein Treatment Centers

enter for Venous Disease (CVD) was established in 2005 and is the No. 1 vein center in the Southwest. Regionally, CVD is No. 1 with offices in Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas, and has earned national recognition from its peer group, societies in its specialty and — more importantly — its patients. In addition, almost 27 percent of CVD’s patients made the mistake of going to a different clinic, only to come to CVD later with worsening symptoms and repeat procedures. The disease is progressive. Delaying treatment is a costly mistake or going to the wrong provider. COMPANY STRENGTHS: “The experience of Dr. David Smith and the CVD staff is our No. 1 strength in Glendale. Our patients compliance with the advise and treatment plans of our providers is also a key to PatientCentered care in a Servant Leadership model led by our doctors and staff. We also collaborate with wound care centers, hospitals, primary care, OBGYN’s, and others to provide a complete solution to the patients needs. TRUST is what has made us No. 1 in the Southwest.” SURPRISING FACT: “Patient word-of-mouth and physician referrals, not pricey advertising, drives our growth from year to year.”

ORE Construction’s founder, Otto Baum, immigrated to Morton, Illinois in 1925 with the hopes of building a new life for his family. He quickly established a reputation for being an honest, hard-working man. When Otto applied for a loan for his masonry company in 1937, he had nothing to use as collateral except his proven character. When the bank manager asked why they should consider Otto’s request, the loan officer simply replied, “I trust him.” This event sparked the beginning of CORE, which now operates across Arizona with the same values that Otto started the company with in 1937. STRENGTH OF STAFF: “Our team is united under a similar desire to build for the future. Our projects help build and shape our communities through the construction of great schools, universities, and public safety facilities. The pride that our team feels motivates us to continually improve every process and professional service we employ.” OUTLOOK FOR 2021: “We are excited about 2021. Despite the challenges we have faced in 2020, we believe Arizona is as strong as ever. We are making continued investments in our team, training, and technology to ensure we are ready to face any challenge that comes our way with strength and optimism.”

We have many different types of projects and I believe it keeps it interesting and fun. This year has been exceptionally challenging with the work from home issues but we like to keep a positive outlook.” IMPACT OF 2021 TRENDS: “I think the construction industry for office tenant improvements will be interesting with so many companies working remotely, the space dynamics will surely change. The industrial and manufacturing tenant improvements don’t seem to be impacted as much from the virus. Employee retention and finding additional labor will still be one of the keys to 2021.” OUTLOOK FOR 2021: “The outlook for us is extremely strong and I believe it will stay that way as Arizona seems to be the place to be right now.”

Desert Horizon Nursery

LAST YEAR

oon Valley Nurseries began right here in Phoenix more than two decades ago with one location. By bringing a new, customer service focused approach and simplifying the tree purchasing process, Moon Valley Nurseries has evolved into one of the largest nursery and landscaping operations in the Western United States. Moon Valley Nurseries’ “You buy it and we plant it” business approach became so successful that it had to begin growing its own trees to keep up with demand. Moon Valley Nurseries still designs, delivers and plants, but now Moon Valley Nurseries is also the largest grower of box trees in the U.S. and has more than 40 locations across Arizona, California, Texas and Nevada.

Nurseries

COMPANY STRENGTHS: “It sounds cliche, but the fundamentals of providing a high quality product, along with professional customer service all at a price that makes it a great value and keeping it focused on providing a complete solution to our customers landscaping situation.” STRENGTH OF STAFF: “Our employees contribute immensely to the relationships we form with our customers. From the initial staff on the phone to the crews that plant the trees at our customers’ homes, our employees are motivated to become the ‘go-to source’ for all of our customers’ landscape and garden needs.”

Outdoor Design/Build

s a premier Arizona pools and landscape designbuild firm, Blooming Desert Construction has been creating extraordinary projects at affordable prices for more than 20 years. Blooming Desert Construction boasts an award-winning design group within the Blooming Desert family, with an average of 14 years of experience per designer.

STRENGTH OF STAFF: “Creating and building is in our DNA. We have a well-established design group that is constantly innovating. This, in turn, pushes our construction division to be learners. The convergence of the two, I believe, naturally separates us from those who don’t travel the same path.” OUTLOOK FOR 2021: “We don’t anticipate significant changes in the market in 2021. There are a number of factors that can alter this year. An election cycle, trade wars, and interest rate reductions will all have their say. Overall, we expect a slight softening in our market.”

n Jeff Mossman’s opinion, a completed project is only one that results in a client referral. Mossman takes pride in making sure clients feel as if their project is the only one the firm is working on at any given moment. “When I meet with someone, I listen intently, asking questions and talking them through the process to better paint a picture in my mind of where I hope to go with it,” Mossman says. Working within a broad scope of vernaculars, including everything from contemporary to traditional, Mossman counts “upscale elegance” as his defining signature style, regardless of the design each respective project calls for. “This type of sophistication is our stamp, our hallmark,” says Mossman of the 28-year-old, family run company. “We take no job for granted, and each job is precious to us.” Mossman Brothers Pools is celebrating its 26th year in the Valley. Mossman Brothers Pools is a recipient of Ranking Arizona’s No. 1 pool builder, as well as AZ Foothills “Best of the Valley: Pool Builder”. Jeff Mossman also received 2014 “Master of the Southwest” honors, given out by Phoenix Home & Garden to professionals who are the best of the best in their chosen field.

Our executives outperform the average real estate agent by 47 percent.” IMPACT OF 2021 TRENDS: “Phoenix is one of the fastest growing markets in the country with approximately 1,500 people moving here weekly.

ichele LaPorte is a Certified Arizona State Master Florist with more than 40 years of experience in the floral industry. She grew up working in her family owned florist and greenhouses, where her love of the business began. LaPorte worked in several florist shops as a designer and in management positions and eventually, opened her own floral design studio, EveningStar Custom Designs. In December 2015, she purchased Arcadia Flowers & Gifts. “My goal is to create a lasting relationship with my customers by providing the most exquisite customized designs, with the highest quality flowers and botanical products.” IMPACT OF 2021 TRENDS: “Since we are a serviceoriented company and we excel in custom work, we really need to have direct contact with our clients, in person and on the phone. Although it is convenient to place an order for flowers online, the personal connection ensures that we have a real feel for what each person is looking for. There are so many ads on the internet that are misleading, so the consumer’s challenge is to get beyond the ads and find a ‘real’ florist, which takes time that most people don’t have.”
