## Story

Koala Insulation announced that it is zeroing-in on the metro Indianapolis market for expansion.

Part of the Empower Brands portfolio, Koala reported that it has six new territories available for regional entrepreneurs. According to Koala, Indianapolis ranks as one the nation’s most dynamic housing markets. This includes the growing suburbs of Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville and Greenwood. Steady residential growth combined with regional weather extremes, such as hot summers and cold winters, continue to push demand in the market.

one of the nation’s fastest-growing insulation franchise brands and part of the Empower Brands family, announced today plans to expand into the Indianapolis metro area. With six new territories available, the company is opening the door for local entrepreneurs to launch mobile, eco-focused businesses that improve comfort, reduce energy waste and strengthen the regional economy.

“Indianapolis homeowners are increasingly focused on energy efficiency, comfort and sustainability, and that’s exactly where Koala Insulation excels,” said Cory Lyons, brand president of Koala Insulation. “We’re not just growing a business here; we’re helping Hoosiers reduce energy bills, support local jobs and invest in greener living.”

Koala provides spray foam, blown-in and batt insulation for residential and commercial properties through a mobile, low-overhead business model. Franchisees receive full training at the brand’s state-of-the-art facility, plus marketing, operational and technology support designed to simplify day-to-day operations and accelerate profitability.

“Running a Koala Insulation franchise has allowed me to make a measurable difference in my community,” said Shawn Stegner, owner of the St. Paul territory. “It’s rewarding to help homeowners lower energy costs while operating a business backed by incredible training and a proven system.”

Koala has been franchising since 2020 and has about 400 units in operation to date. The brand is based in Melbourne, Florida.
