Former high school buddies turn a college business plan into a multi-million dollar hauling company. With 15 locations across the country, College Hunks Hauling Junk has become the largest US-based Junk Removal Franchise Opportunity.
Atlanta, GA (1888PressRelease) September 18, 2008 - College Hunks Hauling Junk has found a win-win scenario in this down economy…
They are helping homeowners and businesses across the country get rid of their unwanted “clutter,” and are providing some “eye candy” as they do it.
Two childhood friends (Nick Friedman and Omar Soliman) decided to make money one summer when they were home from college by borrowing Omar’s mom’s van and hauling junk. Omar returned to college and wrote a business plan based on their business venture. The result: first-place and $10,000. After graduating from college and working in Corporate America, Nick and Omar decided to strike out on their own by following that business plan. The result, College Hunks Hauling Junk, a 3 year old junk removal franchise experiencing rapid growth and success in the hauling industry throughout the United States. Nick and Omar have become youngest franchisors in America.
College Hunks Hauling Junk hauls away one person’s junk, which may be another person’s treasure. The company donates and recycles over 60% of the unwanted items. As Energy Star and Co-Op America Partners, the junk removal company is pioneering the green wave in the hauling industry. The company also donates a portion of their revenues to local college scholarship programs, and offers pro bono charitable services, as they did for victims of Hurricane Katrina.
From the homeowner to the local business person, the vast majority of their clients are women trying to maintain sanity by reducing the clutter in their home or office. As a result, the attractive marketing angle of College Hunks* has proven extremely profitable. (*def. of College “Hunk” is someone clean cut, hard working, pleasant, educated, friendly, personable, courteous).
College Hunks Hauling Junk Franchises are opening up throughout the country. They are ahead of their projections for growth despite the down economy. “We expect to be the largest employer of college students by 2010,” states Omar Soliman, CEO.
