COVERALL CLEANING CONCEPTS ANNOUNCES PURCHASE OF LOUISIANA SUPPORT CENTER

Former Marine, Tony Long, brings his first-rate work ethic to New Orleans

 

NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA — (May 30th, 2006) —Coverall Cleaning Concepts, a leader in the commercial cleaning industry, announced today the purchase of the Louisiana Support Center by Tony Long, former Marine and current Coverall Franchise Owner of Washington DC. His current Janitorial Franchise has been an overwhelming success since opening in 1998 providing Long with the means and knowledge to open a Master Franchise. The Louisiana Support Center is scheduled to open June 1.  Long looks forward to serving the business community of New Orleans, an area that has shown recently how people are able to triumph in the face of adversity. His Louisiana Support Center is located at 4300 South I-10 Service Rd Metarie.

 

As a United States Marine, Long spent 20 plus years in the service and retired as a Master Sergeant E-8. Long’s franchise experience and distinguished military service will prove instrumental in building his business and fostering its development and expansion. Long plans to target medical facilities heavily, but acknowledges that all business opportunities will be explored as the Louisiana Support Center puts down roots in New Orleans. Kevin E. Davis, also a former Marine, has been hired as the Regional Director for Coverall of Louisiana. Like Long, he brings a wealth of professional experience to his new position.

 

“I am looking forward to the challenge of owning and operating a Master Franchise and my own Regional Support Center in Louisiana,” Long said. “Since becoming a Janitorial Franchise Owner, Coverall Cleaning Concepts has provided professionalism, stability and support. With the opening of the Louisiana Support Center, a whole new world of possibilities is ahead of me.”

 

Since becoming a Coverall Cleaning Concepts Franchise Owner, Long has been featured in Entrepreneur and Black Enterprise Magazines and was acknowledged as Coverall Cleaning Concepts’ Franchise Owner of the year in 2003.
