It’s our responsibility and honor to continue that decades-long legacy.”
The Eagle Enterprises acquisition is 4M’s third in 2022 and the company’s 10th over four years. Wisconsin is a new market—the 15th state—for 4M, which reported 2021 revenue of nearly $106 million, a five-year growth period exceeding 100%.

“This business has been a wonderful journey for our family,” said Gottheardt-Muench. “My late father established our simple business model: Provide the best possible service and treat others how you want to be treated. Our exceptional team of dedicated, diligent employees carried out that vision. We’re proud of our business and thrilled that 4M will continue that commitment to service. Most importantly, we are grateful that our teammates will have the continued opportunity to grow and flourish in a rapidly expanding company that’s well respected throughout the industry.”
