Veteran-Owned Franchise Owners Honored at PuroVet Forum; Convention Includes Tribute to Frank Torre Sr. and Moving Ceremony Led by Color Guard

TAMARAC, Fla. — PuroClean, a leading property restoration and remediation franchise, reaffirmed its unwavering support for veterans at the 2025 PuroClean International Convention in Grapevine, Texas. Among the Convention’s many highlights was the PuroVet Forum—an inspiring event celebrating service, community, and the powerful role veterans play across the PuroClean franchise network.

The PuroVet Forum featured a candid and emotional conversation between Frank Torre, Vice Chairman of PuroClean, and Steve White, President & COO and U.S. Army veteran, who shared how military values of leadership, discipline, and service continue to shape the culture and success of PuroClean. The discussion underscored how the PuroVet Program has become more than just a franchise incentive—it’s a national movement empowering veterans to transition successfully into civilian business ownership.

A solemn tribute was held in honor of Frank Torre Sr., a U.S. Marine and decorated member of the elite WWII Carlson’s Raiders, whose legacy of courage and service continues to inspire the PuroVet initiative. The tribute was accompanied by a color guard presentation, bringing attendees to their feet in reflection and respect.

“At PuroClean, we don’t just offer a franchise—we offer a community,” said Torre. “Veterans are leaders, problem solvers, and purpose-driven professionals. The PuroVet Program is built to honor those traits and help veterans thrive in a system that supports their journey.”

White echoed the sentiment: “As a veteran myself, I know firsthand how military experience prepares you for the challenges of business ownership. With our PuroVet Program, we’re proud to offer veterans the structure, support, and opportunity they deserve.”

Through the PuroVet Program, eligible veterans receive a 25% discount on the initial franchise fee, access to a nationwide network of fellow veterans, regularly scheduled open forum peer discussions designed to strengthen veteran engagement, one-on-one mentorship, and comprehensive training to support long-term business success. Today, 1 in 7 PuroClean Franchise Owners are veterans, a testament to the program’s impact and the brand’s ongoing commitment to empowering those who have served. PuroClean continues to expand its veteran recruitment campaign nationwide, welcoming new veteran owners to its network each year.

Recognizing that military service instills leadership, resilience, and a deep commitment to community, PuroClean launched the PuroVet Program in 2017 to help veterans transition into business ownership and continue making a meaningful impact.

Husband-and-Wife Duo Named Top-Performing North American Franchise at Annual PuroClean International Convention Two Years in a Row

MORRISTOWN, N.J. — PuroClean, one of the country’s leading property restoration and remediation franchises, proudly announces its 2024 Franchise of the Year. For the second year in a row and within six years of first becoming eligible after completing the required two years in business, Nelson and Sujey Rivera, Franchise Owners of PuroClean of Morristown, have earned the prestigious title at the company’s Annual International Convention.

The Riveras, who co-own and operate PuroClean of Morristown, Livingston, Bloomfield, and Chester, NJ, as well as Eugene, Oregon, embody PuroClean’s commitment to support families and businesses through life’s unexpected emergencies. They’ve become a trusted name across New Jersey and beyond.

Over the years, the Riveras have built a remarkable reputation, earning multiple accolades for their service and performance, including the PuroClean Cares^® Award for outstanding impact, the Brand Promise Award, and four consecutive invitations to the President’s Circle. Selected from nearly 500 franchise locations across North America, they’ve once again earned the network’s highest honor.

With more than $5 million in annual revenue and a 20% year-over-year growth rate, their business has become a model of operational excellence. The Franchise of the Year award recognizes exceptional achievement in multiple areas, including revenue growth, market penetration, profitability, and brand leadership.

“When we won this last year, a lot of people started calling us and asking for advice, which I couldn’t give. But the truth is, the reason we’re so successful has everything to do with the people in this room,” Nelson said. “My first job over $1 million came from Russell Benes, a fellow Franchise Owner. I was in Vermont with Darrel Depot and later Oregon with Ben Doebler, also Franchise Owners, and all the relationships I’ve built in this franchise got us to where we are. I’ll share this with all of you.”

Nelson Rivera’s story is one of service, resilience, and deep community roots. A proud Essex County resident since 1999, Nelson moved with his family to Newark before settling in Orange, where he began serving as a firefighter in 2009. Today, he continues to serve his community as the Deputy Fire Chief.

His introduction to PuroClean came in 2017 when he worked as a technician at a location in Livingston. Inspired by the company’s mission and recognizing an opportunity to make an even greater impact, Nelson and Sujey purchased their first PuroClean franchise in 2019. Since then, they have grown their portfolio to five locations across two states, including the franchise where he first got his start.

Nelson credits their ability to remain fluid and adaptable, especially during unpredictable market shifts, as a major factor in their ongoing success. The combination of Nelson’s firefighting background and Sujey’s leadership in financial operations has created a high-performing franchise model that continues to scale year after year.

“PuroClean Franchise of the Year is incredibly difficult to win, as the competition is fierce! It is truly earned with points awarded from every area of our business. This year, we had a rare repeat winner. However, it was no surprise to me, as Nelson and Sujey have continued the amazing work and service that got them this recognition last year,” said Steve White, President and COO of PuroClean. “Nelson Rivera lives a life rooted in service—whether responding to fires as a firefighter or stepping in to help families recover from disaster as a PuroClean Franchise Owner. He meets every challenge head-on, driven by a deep commitment to helping others. Together with Sujey, he embodies what it truly means to be a Paramedic of Property Damage®. The Rivera family sets a standard we can all aspire to.”

As the third of twelve children and the father of two young daughters, Nelson knows firsthand the value of community and courage. His public service has earned him multiple honors, including the City of Orange Chamber of Commerce Valor Award, New Jersey State Firemen’s Mutual Benevolent Association Award for Valor, and the American Red Cross Hero Award.

Rooted in strong values of service and community giveback, PuroClean is overjoyed to honor unsung heroes across the country with awards, recognitions, and events to celebrate their service and dedication.

In celebration of National Superhero Day on April 28, PuroClean Franchise Owners partnered with local community groups and organizations, nominating important figures in their market who they deem superheroes. These local heroes included first responders, teachers, health care workers, volunteers, and everyday citizens who have made a difference in their community.

We’re proud to see so many of our teams participating and shining a light on the individuals who truly make a difference.”

Now, they feed thousands each holiday, expecting nothing in return.
• Keegan Trudgen and Tim Lohse, PuroClean in Chicagoland, IL: This franchise recognized Paul Rocco, National Operations Director for their PuroClean locations.

Leading Restoration and Remediation Franchise Supports American Heroes as Title Sponsor

TAMARAC, Fla. — The Tunnel to Towers Foundation hosted its prestigious Celebrity Golf Classic at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, bringing together an extraordinary gathering of celebrities, veterans, first responders, dignitaries, and business leaders. The event served as a powerful celebration of patriotism, service, and philanthropy—anchored by the Title Sponsorship of PuroClean, under the leadership of Frank Torre, Vice Chairman of PuroClean.

Under Torre’s direction, PuroClean proudly served as Title Sponsor, reflecting the company’s unwavering commitment to supporting America’s heroes. Central to this mission is PuroVet, a PuroClean initiative that empowers U.S. military veterans through franchise ownership opportunities, SBA loan guidance, and the resources to build successful businesses in the $210 billion property damage restoration industry.

“It’s an honor to support an organization that does so much for our nation’s heroes,” said Torre. “PuroClean and our PuroVet program are deeply aligned with Tunnel to Towers’ mission to never forget the sacrifices made by military families and first responders. My father’s service as a Carlson’s Raider in World War II inspires everything we do to give back.”

Torre’s commitment to veterans is deeply personal. His father served with honor as a U.S. Marine in the elite Carlson’s Raiders during World War II, a legacy that continues to inspire the PuroVet program and PuroClean’s dedication to veteran empowerment.

In addition to PuroClean’s leading role, the event received support from several other generous sponsors, all united in a shared commitment to honor and uplift veterans and first responders. A diverse mix of business executives, nonprofit leaders, and civic dignitaries were also in attendance, underscoring the widespread backing of Tunnel to Towers’ mission.

“Frank Torre’s unwavering dedication to our veterans and first responders is both humbling and inspiring,” said Frank Siller, Chairman & CEO of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. “His leadership and generosity elevate events like the Tunnel to Towers Celebrity Golf Classic and ensure that the mission to honor our nation’s heroes never loses momentum. We’re proud to stand alongside him.”

The celebrity-filled event featured appearances by Dennis Quaid, Guy Fieri, Jim Whalberg, and others who joined supporters to raise critical funds and awareness. The day featured heartfelt tributes, including a stirring performance by the Southwest Florida Guns and Hoses Pipes and Drums, and a breathtaking display as skydivers descended with enormous American flags, saluting those who serve.

Adding to the event’s impact, Frank Torre made a generous personal contribution during the live auction, a gesture that exemplifies his personal commitment to the spirit of Servant Leadership—one of PuroClean’s core values—reinforcing his heartfelt dedication to the Foundation’s mission and those it serves.

The Tunnel to Towers Celebrity Golf Classic was more than just a tournament—it was a powerful reminder of the strength that comes from unity, gratitude, and purpose, and the critical importance of supporting those who protect our nation’s freedom.
