P.R.-based franchisees receive highest honor in FastSigns System
José Corujo, Juan A. Rivera, and Teresa Caballero, Master Franchise Owners of FastSigns Puerto Rico, which includes three locations, recently received national recognition as the recipients of The FastSigns Award at the 2019 FastSigns International Convention recently held in Orlando, Florida.
Company executives said the award, which is the most
prestigious recognition in the franchise network of more than 700 locations in
nine countries worldwide, is presented to the franchisees who best represent
the FastSigns brand in their community and in the network, and provide
exceptional customer service, mentoring, company culture and employee
development.
FastSigns Puerto Rico also received an award for their
involvement in the Franchise Advisory Council.
“It is a huge honor for us. We feel it is such a
high recognition to receive this award, because we know the quality of our
peers within the franchise network,” said Caballero, market strategy partner
with FastSigns Puerto Rico.
Having a strong client base on the island through a
company that specialized in POP (point-of-purchase) marketing, Corujo, Rivera and
Caballero converted their existing business in 2012 into FastSigns to benefit
from brand recognition, operational support and expanded services for existing
and new customers.
The team signed a Master Franchise Agreement to expand
the FastSigns brand in Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and the Dominican
Republic.
During 2012, FastSigns opened its first Puerto Rican
center in Guaynabo, followed by the Caguas center in 2014 and Carolina in 2015.
FastSigns Puerto Rico also has a production workshop, located in the Lucchetti
Industrial Park, and its more than 19 employees are proud to contribute to the
local economy with their sales talent and production capacity.
“This team excels in solving visual communications,
helping customers achieve their objectives, and represents the FastSigns brand
with passion, excellence and enthusiasm,” said FastSigns International
Inc. CEO Catherine Monson.
