Local owner Matt Greene and General Manager Kristin Lum-Perreira will host an event at the Air Force Academy game this weekend and a grand opening luncheon in October.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Matt Greene, a 23-year U.S. Air Force veteran and current construction company chief, announced today that the company will host an event for Temporary Wall Systems (TWS) Colorado Springs, the first and leading full-service temporary containment wall provider in the United States, at the Air Force Falcons game against the San Diego State Aztecs on Saturday, Sept. 30.

Greene and his general manager, Kristin Lum-Perreira, will have models of the containment walls on display at the game held at the Air Force Academy stadium in Academy, Colorado.

They will also host a grand opening lunch and learn event on Oct. 13 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at their new office at 3104 Century Street, Colorado Springs, Colorado. The wall containment company will provide a barbeque meal for attendees of the luncheon event.

Lum-Perreira will handle TWS Colorado Springs’ day-to-day operations while Greene continues his role as the CEO of MAVericks Construction, also located in Colorado Springs.

“Colorado Springs is a booming city with a thriving high-tech, military, healthcare and tourism base,” Greene said. “Because the city is undergoing this wave of expansion, Temporary Wall Systems Colorado Springs will fill a very real need in the community. Our rentable and reusable containment walls are a perfect option for businesses to separate people and property from ongoing renovations and construction so they stay safe and protected.”

Greene, an Arkansas native, moved to Colorado Springs in 1989 to attend the United States Air Force Academy. After retiring from the Air Force in 2017, he started MAVericks Construction. He also received a master’s degree in civil engineering from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville.

Lum-Perreira worked as the business office manager for another local federal contractor before being named general manager of TWS Colorado Springs. She was born in Tacoma, Washington, but moved to Oahu, Hawaii, where she was raised. She moved to Colorado Springs in 2019 and has worked in operations and management for a variety of companies in residential and commercial construction and federal contract management.

“I love the challenge of starting new things, so it’s exciting to be a part of a brand-new company,” she said. “Matt and his team are tremendously supportive and are proven winners. It will be an honor to learn from him and expand TWS Colorado Springs during this time of growth for the city.”

Greene says he hopes TWS Colorado Springs will provide the community with employment opportunities, and he looks forward to giving back to the area that has been his home off and on for more than 11 years.

TWS is part of HomeFront Brands, a family of emerging, franchised residential and commercial property service brands that offers integrated technology, data support, lead generation, business intelligence systems and training to its partners.

Temporary Wall Systems provides modular wall systems that are designed with versatility in mind. The company’s full-service business model simplifies construction and renovation by taking care of the entire containment process, from job site delivery to expert installation and removal when the project is complete.

Independent research shows that the fast-growing National Automotive Styling Center™ delivers industry-leading performance and outstanding value for franchisees.

BOCA RATON, Fla. — Tint World^® Automotive Styling Centers™, a leading auto accessory and window tinting franchise, ranks among the top 2% of all franchise businesses and is ranked #1 in the automotive sector for franchisee financing creditworthiness based on independent research by leading franchise market intelligence firm FRANdata.

Tint World’s 2023 FRANdata FUND score of 885 leads all other automotive franchises. The company’s high score reflects Tint World’s proven value and financial reliability for franchisees.

The FUND score is a franchise credit score that rates 12 credit risk categories such as franchise business success rates, franchise unit profitability, and franchisee support. Top-scoring brands such as Tint World excel in each of these metrics, making it easy for lenders to do business with them. The FRANdata FUND score is widely regarded as the best predictor of the future performance of a franchise system that publicly available information can provide.

“Our mission at Tint World is to support the success and growth of our franchisees, and this ranking reinforces that message,” said Charles J.

“The FUND scores provide a quantifiable measure of Tint World’s strong foundation, positioning us firmly for future growth and expansion,” said Tint World Chief Investment Officer Jonathan Norman. “These scores reflect our commitment to ensuring the continued success of all our franchisees while highlighting our financial stability, operational efficiency, and strategic vision.”

FUND Reports quantify for a lender how a franchise system’s performance and characteristics affect the likelihood of a loan default. Used in conjunction with an assessment of the franchisee borrower, lenders are able to determine the overall risk profile associated with a loan, set appropriate terms, and establish appropriate loan capital reserves. FRANdata produces hundreds of FUND Scores annually for lenders that represent the majority of SBA franchise financing and supports commercial lending to franchising as well.

“Over four decades, Tint World has consistently produced impressive outcomes,” remarked Darrell Johnson, CEO of FRANdata. “This has established them as a coveted franchise option within the automotive sector.

“I’ve been a passenger, and I’ve worked on these tours, and each bike is always such a sight to see coming down the street,” new co-owner Jason Cleary said. “The public reception is incredible every single time with people taking photos and videos, which makes the experience so unique.”

Take in the vibrant culture of the Wynwood neighborhood on a tour with Pedal Pub Miami. Each tour stops at the most iconic murals in the neighborhood and offers opportunities to enjoy the local bars and restaurants or bring your own drinks on the bike.

“This is a chance to do something that doesn’t exist anywhere else in Miami,” general manager Gerry Rodriguez said. “Whether you’re celebrating a birthday and want to bring food and cake, or you want to pedal around and drink, there’s something for everyone.”

Started in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Pedal Pub now has more than 60 franchised and licensed locations across North America. For more information and booking, visit pedalpub.com/locations/.

Window Hero opens second Texas branch with a new location in Belton

Veteran brings a wide variety of home maintenance, cleaning, and repair services, offers career opportunities for local veterans.

BELTON, Texas — Window Hero, a HomeFront Brands franchise specializing in a wide range of exterior cleaning services, announces the opening of its second location in Texas. The newest branch, located in Temple–Belton, is owned by Mike Murphy and offers window cleaning, gutter care, pressure washing and more.

A graduate from Southern Nazarene University in Bethany, OK, Murphy has lived in Belton for the past 17 years with his wife, Katie Murphy, and their daughter. He learned about Window Hero while attending a franchise event in Dallas.

“This is an underserved market. My personal experience with window cleaning businesses has been poor, and I want to change that for others in the area,” Murphy said. “My overall vision is to create a business that is in high demand and serves as the premier team of experts.”

Having served over 12 years in the military, Murphy wants to implement a mentorship program for veterans transitioning out of the Army.

“Belton is highly populated with active-duty service members and veterans, and I want to create more possibilities for locals looking for a career change into the civilian world,” Murphy said. “I understand the challenges that come with that transition, and I’m thankful to be in a place where I can help others navigate those challenges.”

Following his military service, Murphy went on to run his own financial advisory office and insurance firm before transitioning into the operational department for a franchise.

“From my military service to experience as a financial advisor, I believe leadership is the number one skill that will translate into being a successful business owner,” Murphy said.

Building a business that he and his family can call their own is a priority for Murphy. The work-life balance of franchising and the vision to create a business in high demand played a major role in his decision to open a Window Hero location.

“I want to start something that my family can call their own,” Murphy said. “I want to empower our young daughter to reach her goals, and I want to set an example for her.”

The ribbon cutting for the new location will take place on Oct. 12 from 4:30 to 6 p.m. at the Belton Area Chamber of Commerce. Food will be catered by Miller’s Smokehouse and giveaways will be available at the event.

Temporary Wall Systems opens its first Colorado location in South Denver

New location will make reusable wall systems widely available for renovation and construction, supporting the forward-thinking city’s commitment to reducing waste.

DENVER — Temporary Wall Systems (TWS), the first and leading full-service, temporary containment wall provider in the United States, will highlight its grand opening with a booth at the International Facility Management Association’s World Workplace Expo on Sept. 27 – 29 at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, Colorado.

The new business is owned by Mike Guy, and he will be available at booth 488 along with one of the reusable walls on display for attendees to view.

Guy, who has worked as an IT consultant, owns and rents several properties throughout Denver, and he’s familiar with the renovation process. He’s ready to show eco-conscious Denverites how TWS will allow them complete renovations without having to waste building supplies traditionally used for temporary containment.

“Owning and operating Colorado’s first Temporary Wall Systems in an environmentally conscious city like Denver is a great opportunity for me to support its sustainability initiatives,” Guy said. “I’m proud to be part of the solution. I want to help business owners and contractors make a positive change by giving them new options for reducing construction waste.”

In November, Denver voters approved an ordinance that would require that most construction and demolition waste be recycled and that a recycling and reuse plan be submitted to the city prior to obtaining a construction or demolition permit. The Waste No More Implementation Task Force is in the process of finalizing its recommendations to implement the new ordinance.

“When the new ordinance begins, we want Denver to know we’re here to help,” Guy said.

Guy has been part of the Denver community for more than 25 years. In addition to his work as an IT consultant, he has a real estate license and has bought and sold residential properties in the area for several years. He and his wife, Heather, have two children, and the family enjoys outdoor activities.

“There are 10 Fortune 500 companies headquartered in the Denver area, and it has the third busiest airport in the country,” Guy said. “There is a lot of growth in the community, and with that growth comes the necessity to renovate and improve some of the area’s older commercial buildings. We can help businesses grow with cleaner, faster temporary containment barriers. They’re so effective, they can even be used in occupied spaces so businesses can remain open during renovation.”

TWS South Denver provides modular wall systems that are designed with versatility in mind. Its full-service business model simplifies construction and renovation by taking care of the entire containment process, from job site delivery to expert installation and removal when the project is complete. The South Denver location will serve Denver, Aurora, Parker, Englewood, Castle Rock, Morrison and Littleton, Colorado.

TWS is part of HomeFront Brands, a family of emerging, franchised residential and commercial property service brands that offers integrated technology, data support, lead generation, business intelligence systems and training to its partners.
