From Armenia to San Fernando. Building Business, Community & a Life that Matters
A Story That Sprouted Halfway Across the World
Edgar didn’t grow up dreaming of owning four companies.
He grew up in a small town in Armenia, where neighbors knew your name, where you earned your bread with your hands, and where community was everything.
When he arrived in San Fernando, California, he had no connections, no shortcuts—just big dreams and a tireless work ethic. The kind of guy who says “yes” to opportunity, and figures it out later.
What started as a one-man hustle soon grew into something bigger. Four businesses. Dozens of jobs. And a quiet mission to make life better for his family, his customers, and his city.
Built With Purpose:
The Story Behind the Brands
Modern Farms
It started with a single greenhouse and a simple promise: keep it fresh, keep it local.
Today, Modern Farms delivers produce people can trust—grown sustainably, priced fairly, and rooted in community.
Sun Valley Hydro
While others sold supplies, Edgar sold solutions.
He built Sun Valley Hydro to help growers innovate—bringing smarter hydroponics, better yields, and support that feels personal.
Lakeside Auto Center
What began as a small neighborhood garage became a trusted pit stop for the community.
From oil changes to complex repairs, Lakeside Auto Center is built on honest work, fair prices, and mechanics who treat your car like their own.
For Edgar, it’s not just fixing cars, it’s keeping families safe on the road.
MaidsApp
Inspired by friends struggling to find reliable work, MaidsApp became a platform for trustworthy cleaning, with human values.
Good pay. Fair scheduling. A home-cleaning service that actually cleans up the industry.
Each brand began the same way:
Edgar spotted a problem and couldn’t rest until he fixed it.
More Than a Businessman
Ask anyone in San Fernando.
Edgar’s not just the guy who runs four companies.
He’s the guy who shows up to community clean-ups.
Who donates farm goods to shelters.
Who hires locals first.
- He believes in second chances. In treating employees like family. In doing the right thing—even when no one’s watching.
