Army and Air Force veteran Jack Child offers a franchise concept to fellow veterans interested in becoming small business owners.
Last year Child launched G-FORCE, a parking lot striping franchise open exclusively to veterans. He sold a similar concept in 2009 that was open to all.
“I decided to jump back into the industry, but this time with the focus exclusively on military veterans,” Child said during a recent interview from the National Pavement Expo & Conference in Cleveland. “This time, I’m building the brand around the franchise owner, instead of the other way around, which is how most franchises evolve.”
The franchise has low overhead and can be operated from home.
Your parking lot is one of your property's biggest assets, and industry data shows that regular maintenance like sealcoating can extend the life of your asphalt up to eight years. We suggest a logistical approach that treats your lot as a series of manageable steps rather than one big obstacle.
Pavement is the first piece of your property that a customer will encounter and the last thing they see. When maintaining curb appeal, proactive care is the only way to mitigate the high costs of parking lot liability.
