Local Entrepreneur Ready to Light Port Charlotte Community with New Blingle! Franchise

A native of Ft. Lauderdale, Dunivan’s career began with serving eight years in the Marine Corps before going back to school, ultimately earning a degree in Business Administration and Information Technology from University of Missouri-Kansas City. Upon graduation, he began his corporate journey in IT consulting, first with Sprint then with T-Mobile. After spending 23 years of his career in Kansas City, Dunivan found his way back to Southwest Florida in 2020.

Following his 25-year career in IT, he was ready to be his own boss. He began working with an entrepreneurial coach who matched his personality to execute and get things done with a variety of brands. When it came down to making a decision, it was the people and treatment he received from the Blingle! team that made it a no brainer.

“Blingle! offers a great support system to help set franchisees up for success,” said Dunivan. “I am looking forward to getting out from behind a desk and involved with the community to provide all their lighting needs.”

Blingle! of Port Charlotte is expected to open in early Summer of 2024.

“We are excited to have Patrick join the Blingle! family,” Josh Skolnick, Founder of HorsePower Brands said. “To be able to bring the products and service that we have to offer to the Port Charlotte community is a great opportunity.”
