In these turbulent economic times, it is challenging for many companies to stay competitive. Believing in growth and progress, Grassi & Co. has continued its mission to enhance its client service team. With the addition of two new partners, the firm continues to pursue its growth plan. This plan, introduced by managing partner Lou Grassi one year ago, outlines an aggressive 100% growth goal during the next five years.
