## Story

The busy moving season is coming to a close as we enter the fall months at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® , but it was business as usual this week in Lansing, Mich., as franchisees and managers from the network met for the Fall Franchise Conference and Expo.

Held at the Lansing Center in downtown Lansing, franchisees and their team members from all over North America met with Home Office support teams to learn the latest company news and best practices, hear directly from the executive team on the direction of the brand, and meet with vendors in a fun and interactive setting.

“Our Fall Franchise Conference and Expo is one of the few times our franchisees and managers have the chance to meet and connect with vendors face-to-face,” said Chris Bortnichak, training and development team lead at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Home Office. “Interacting with partners you work with on a regular basis allows you to not only strengthen relationships, but allows people to learn about what they offer.”

This annual fall event provides an environment for networking and discussion among some of the most successful franchisees and managers in the company, as they are able share what is – and what isn’t – working at their franchise locations.
