DENVER — AlphaGraphics, a leading franchisor of printing and marketing solutions, has announced that Louis Malooley has received the International Franchise Association Franchisee of the Year award, which is the top award available for a franchisee. The AlphaGraphics of Buckhead owner was honored at the 63^rd IFA Annual Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada.

“Louis (Malooley) has always been an amazing ambassador and representative of the AlphaGraphics brand,” said Bill McPherson, vice president of franchise development. “Whether he is speaking with potential franchisees or providing excellent insight and strategies to other owners, Louis is always ready to share his thoughts for the betterment of the brand. I couldn’t think of anyone more deserving to be called franchisee of the year.”

The Franchisee of the Year Award, sponsored by IFA’s partner Paychex, recognizes leading franchise owners from IFA member brands whose outstanding performance and contributions help protect, enhance, and promote the franchise business model.

“Winning this award is a testament to the hard work both my team in Buckhead and the leaders at AlphaGraphics headquarters put in every day,” Malooley said. “It takes more than one person to be successful, and my name wouldn’t be on this award if not for the mentors that helped me along the way and a strong team to deliver exceptional service and quality. Being a member of the AlphaGraphics family is amazing, and we will continue to grow and expand our franchise system together.”
