“I have been so lucky to have been given an opportunity to begin a franchise enterprise with Jan-Pro,” stated Steve Greer, Franchise Owner with Jan-Pro of Kansas City, and US Navy veteran who served on the USS Ticonderoga CV 14, an aircraft carrier for the duration of the Vietnam War. “I had usually deemed a cleaning business, and soon after meeting with Jan-Pro, it became clear that this was the direction I wanted to go. It has paid off in so a lot of techniques, both monetarily and job satisfaction.”
Nakita and Dwayne Cruse are both vets and Jan-Pro of San Antonio owners. Nakita served in the marines, stationed in Okinawa, and Dwayne in the Army, stationed in Germany, Turkey, Istanbul, Kuwait and the US. “We had been proud to serve our country and also to be franchise owners with Jan-Pro.” The sentiment runs the very same with Jan-Pro veteran owner, Doel Miranda, Jan-Pro of Puerto Rico.
Justin Cali, Vet and Owner of Jan-Pro Orlando and Palm Beach put it succinctly: “I am proud of several items I have been blessed to be able to do all through my life and profession, such as serving my country in the Army, both as an enlisted soldier and as an officer. Through the abilities I developed in places such as leadership, teamwork and mission accomplishment, I have been in a position to apply those useful abilities in the developing of a profitable Jan-Pro Master Franchise Enterprise.”
The numerous veteran-owned Jan-Pro businesses across the country have received tremendous support and encouragement from US Military and Government operations. For example, Jan-Pro of Raleigh cleans a facility on the US Army base of Fort Bragg in North Carolina, and Jan-Pro of Puerto Rico cleans the Federal Customs Offices in San Juan.
