LOCAL NEW JERSEY SERVICEMASTER CLEAN FRANCHISE WINS THREE INTERNATIONAL AWARDS
Memphis, Tenn. (September 24, 2010) – Rich and Bryan Gardella, owners of ServiceMaster of the South Shore in Manasquan, N.J. were recently honored with three levels of awards during the ServiceMaster Clean, AmeriSpec and Furniture Medic International Convention held in Boston at the Hynes Convention Center. Rich and Bryan received the Achiever Award, the ServiceMaster Clean Expert Award, and Marion E. Wade Master Award of Honor for their outstanding 2009 business performance and contributions.
Recipients of the Achiever Award must meet a variety of criteria in order to be nominated, including a minimum revenue amount, annual growth of at least 10 percent. From these recipients, the top franchises are selected for the Expert Award. Rich and Bryan were nominated for their outstanding leadership and commitment with customers, employees, fellow franchisees and the community.
The Marion E. Wade Master Award of Honor is only given to the top six franchise owners annually out of 4,500 businesses worldwide. The Marion E. Wade Founder’s award, which is the largest and most prestigious given to a franchise owner, is based on financial success, growth, leadership and for exemplifying the ServiceMaster Commitment.
Rich has been with ServiceMaster for 25 years. Like many longtime ServiceMaster franchise owners, he first learned about the company from listening to Paul Harvey on the radio. He attributes his success to family – his own family as well as his ServiceMaster family.
His son Bryan has worked in the business his entire adult life. This year they expanded their operation by buying another territory and now serve the five county area that makes up the entire New Jersey coastline. Bryan is also a race car driver for a local circuit while Rich serves as his crew chief.
“Rich and Bryan’s energy and dedication are qualities that contribute to the overall success of our company and provide peace of mind to homeowners in their service areas,” said Mike Isakson, President of ServiceMaster Clean, headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee. “We are proud to honor them with the highest achievement level in our company, the Marion E. Wade Master Award of Honor.”
