Former Manager Fulfills Dream By Owning Franchise

FT. COLLINS, COLO (Tuesday, December 27, 2005) - Fred Gonzales has high hopes for his new business. He wants to quadruple the productivity of the Fort Collins location of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® and he plans to expand his fleet to better serve the area.

"Fort Collins is a great community,'' Gonzales says. "There is a lot of opportunity here and I can't wait to get more and more involved. We plan to work with area charity organizations and will treat everyone as we'd like to see our grandmothers treated – with care and respect.''

Gonzales bought-out the Fort Collins franchise this fall. He says he was attracted to the international franchise system because of the company's strong core values. These values include exceeding customer expectations, being a role model, giving back to the community and having fun. Before buying the business, Gonzales worked as the general manager for the Boulder and two different Denver locations. He says his long commitment and experience to TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® will add to his success with the Fort Collins location.

Currently, his office includes 13 employees and two trucks. Gonzales hopes to add four trucks in the next year.

"It is great to be back in northern Colorado,'' Gonzales says. "I worked in this area 10 years ago and I am excited by how much it has grown into a thriving economic center.''

TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® started was started by two brothers as an after-school business nearly 20 years ago. After the pair left for college, their mother took over the business and helped it grow into 158 locations in North America with more than 1,100 trucks on the road.
