## Story

Poolwerx (Poolwerx USA) announced that it is continuing to grow in Texas after adding two new franchise territories.

The pool service and retail franchise said it has awarded the father and son team of Joshua and Eddie DeLeon the areas of Frisco and Celina, Texas, both suburbs of the the Dallas-Fort Worth market. The DeLeon tandem are both veterans of the United States Marine Corps.

“We are incredibly excited to welcome Joshua and Eddie to the Poolwerx family,” said Andrew Kidd, Poolwerx CEO. “Their combined military experience has instilled in them an unparalleled work ethic, a commitment to excellence, and strong problem-solving skills – all qualities that are essential for success in our franchise system. We’re confident that their leadership and dedication will make them exceptional franchisees and a tremendous asset to their communities.”

According to Poolwerx, this latest contract is a continuation of the franchise growing its national footprint. The company currently operates in 16 U.S. states through over 35 retail locations and more than 200 service trucks. In Texas alone, Poolwerx has a presence in more than 30 markets.

Poolwerx, another example of the rising surge in home services franchise growth, said it continues to seek “passionate and qualified individuals to join its growing network of franchisees.” The business offers a full range of services including pool cleaning, equipment repair, and retail sales of pool chemicals and supplies.

“We were deeply impressed by Poolwerx’s robust support system, comprehensive training, and proven business model,” said Joshua DeLeon. “As veterans, we understand the importance of discipline and execution, and we see those values reflected in the Poolwerx culture. We’re eager to leverage our experience to build a successful business and serve our local communities.”

Eddie DeLeon added, “This is an incredible opportunity for us to build something together as a family while also utilizing the skills and principles we learned in the Marine Corps. We’re excited to bring Poolwerx’s high-quality pool service and retail solutions to Frisco and Celina.”

Poolwerx USA is based in Farmers Branch, Texas, an inner-ring suburb of Dallas and also part of the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The company was founded in 1992 by John O’Brien in Australia and began franchising in 1995. It has since grown into the world’s largest pool service franchise, with over 400 territories worldwide.

Last year, Poolwerx added 22 new U.S. franchise territories. The company said that it wants to reach 300 U.S. territories within the next 3 years.
