PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 21, 2023 – Rapidly expanding home service franchisor, Zoom Drain, fortifies its board of directors by ushering in new board members and advisors. This decision stems from its accelerated growth rate in the United States franchising market.

Ellen Rohr Assumes Key Role on the Board

Ellen Rohr, hitherto President of Zoom Drain, is stepping into a pivotal role on the board of directors. This substantial move signals her resolve to propel growth and progress within the burgeoning organization by transitioning from a presidential role to a strategic board position.

New Board Advisory Roles Filled

Further amplifying its leadership team, Zoom Drain has engaged two revered franchising experts as board advisors. Sherry Rose, CEO of Stellar Service Brands, and Jessica Wescott, COO/CFO of the same company, join the board in an advisory capacity. This measure is viewed as a tactical approach to enhance the company's lead roles and pledge to fostering the franchise's heightened success.

Gaining from Franchising Expertise

Speaking on this recent development, Zoom Drain CEO Jim Criniti, lauded the considerable franchising expertise the new board composition brings. He stated, 'Zoom Drain is a sought-after franchise opportunity. Our remarkable growth over the last 18 months is attributable to our top-rate franchise program. As we continue to expand, we aim to maintain the culture that attracted our outstanding franchisees.'

Rohr’s impressive track record in the home service industry began in a managerial capacity in her husband's plumbing business. Subsequently, she led a home services company from inception to a towering $40 million in franchise sales in under two years. Rohr joined the Philadelphia-based Zoom Drain in 2016, fueled by a vision to transform it into a franchising behemoth.

Longstanding Franchising Experience

Rose and Wescott both bring valuable franchising experience to the board. Before joining Stellar Service Brands, Rose served as vice president for franchising and customer service at ServiceMaster Corporation. Wescott held key roles at MOOYAH Burgers, Fries and Shakes and the Fuzzy's Taco Shop franchise before joining Stellar.

In conclusion, Zoom Drain has shown a remarkable growth trend since its inception in 1995 by Jim Criniti, who borrowed $3,000 from his mother-in-law to kickstart the drain cleaning venture. Its franchising program was launched in 2015, and the company forged a partnership with MPK Equity Partners in 2020. Today, the company boasts 60 franchisees spread over 153 territories.
