For most business owners, the pandemic has had damaging effects on business. But for the franchise owners of Pool Scouts , the story is a bit different.

With help from the Pool Scouts corporate team, franchisees have been able to offer contactless services, making their business even more valuable to their growing customer base.

“In this unprecedented environment, timely information and relevant resources are essential, and we’re focused on supporting franchisees through these challenging times,” Pool Scouts President Michael Wagner told IFA.
