ECHO USA: Made in America
When Ruben Diaz Sr. immigrated from Durango, Mexico in the 1970s, he was seeking a new life. Not because he wanted to leave Mexico behind, but because he knew he could do more in the United States by providing better opportunities for his family. From humble beginnings doing landscaping in Chicago with his own brothers, Ruben Sr. broke off and founded the Diaz Group as a business with his sons. Today, his eldest, Rafael, leads the business. By embracing their family culture, they not only achieved Ruben’s original goal, but spread that love to their employees and helped improve the look and popular opinion of their neighborhood. Ruben's story is truly one that was Made in America.
