Green Home Solutions forges ahead with Midwest expansion

Green Home Solutions has signed four multi-unit deals to propel rapid expansion in the Midwest.

Through the signing of four multi-unit deals, the indoor air quality brand plans to bring 10 new locations to the states of Illinois, Indiana and Iowa.

The Indiana expansion will be headed up by Ben White, who has signed on for three units in Indianapolis. After serving two decades in the army, White was on the hunt for an entrepreneurial opportunity and stumbled upon Green Home Solutions. White’s locations are planned to open in Q4 and will be run by himself, his wife and the rest of his family.

“When this opportunity fell into my lap, I knew I couldn’t pass it up,” said White. “Speaking with the other Green Home Solutions franchisees is what really sold me and every single one was helpful and happy to talk to me. I believe my military background will be a huge asset and I look forward to getting started.”

Brent Hernandez will be responsible for bringing two locations to South Bend. Hernandez had spent the majority of his career in customer-service positions during his time at various airlines and RV companies. After deciding that he wants to run his own business, he decided on Green Home Solutions due to the passion he and his family have for the environment.

Iowa native Mike Murtha is behind the two new locations in Des Moines. Murtha spent much of his career in sales and learned about Green Home Solutions through his network and immediately leapt at the idea.

“The plant-based products and EPA registration was a huge win for me,” shared Murtha.

“The onboarding process has been great – the team has gone above and beyond to ensure I am set up for success. I’m looking forward to continuing to learn and grow along with my fellow franchisees.”

The Chicagoland area will have three new units and will be developed by Jim Blandi.

“We’ve continued to build out a robust team of franchise partners throughout the years and I’m thrilled to add a few more to our roster,” shared Glen Snyder, chief development officer, Green Home Solutions.

“Ben, Brent, Mike and Jim are the exact prospects we look for – ones who possess a passion for our brand and an overwhelming enthusiasm to build a successful business.”
