What Profishant does
Profishant, inc. is a privately held, veteran-owned service company headquartered at 2834 Acushnet Ave., New Bedford, Massachusetts, with a secondary office in Fairhaven, MA. The company operates in two divisions: a regional pest control practice covering residential and commercial customers across Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island, and a Food Safety and OSHA consulting practice that serves clients nationally (OSHA) and internationally (Food Safety). The pest control offering is built on an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach prioritizing least-toxic, eco-friendly methods and includes differentiated programs such as 100% all-natural mosquito and tick treatments and a CO2-based rodent control service. Recurring revenue is anchored by the Quarterly Home Protection Plan (QHPP), with the rest coming from one-time treatments, exclusion work (termite, wildlife, bed bugs), and biannual perimeter plans.
The consulting division is structured around high-touch professional services engagements: HACCP planning, GFSI certification work (BRCGS, SQF, Global GAP), GMP audits, FSMA compliance, and third-party retail food safety audits, plus OSHA General Industry compliance and ServSafe / PIT (forklift) training delivered at the company's on-site Conference and Training Center. Commercial customers include restaurants, schools, daycares, hospitals, nursing homes, hotels, food manufacturing, and pharmaceutical facilities — environments where documented pest control programs and audit-ready documentation are vendor prerequisites. The company's core technology assets are procedural rather than software: a proprietary Fly Light Trap (ILT) Program Design methodology and specialized protocols for sensitive environments.
Go-to-market is sales-led and 100% direct field service. Licensed technicians visit customer sites, both selling and delivering service; free consultations are offered to prospective commercial customers, and pricing is quote-based for both recurring and one-time engagements. The company is family-operated with 11-50 employees, founder-led by Andrew W. Sievers (US Navy veteran, Associate Certified Entomologist), and reports over 1,400 five-star reviews across platforms and BBB accreditation. There is no external equity funding, no acquisitions disclosed, and no public financial reporting.
