AlphaGraphics of Layton Receives Franny Award
Operational Excellence, Brand Stewardship, Community Leadership
Key Requirements for Award
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, August 17, 2016 –AlphaGraphics, Inc., a global leader in print and marketing communications solutions, today announced that Jerron and Melanie Hale, franchise owners in Layton, Utah, have been awarded the 2016 Franny Award.
The Franny Award is the highest and most-coveted award in the AlphaGraphics franchise system. Each year the Franny Award is given to the AlphaGraphics business center that best exemplifies the AlphaGraphics brand in their local community. Key considerations for the award are sustained operational excellence, community involvement and participation in the franchise network.
Criteria used in choosing the winner include the sales achievement, a model business operation and network leadership. The award winner must also have a proven track record of contributing to the overall success of the brand and positive representation of AlphaGraphics in the community. The award was announced during the company’s annual conference in New Orleans on August 6.
As the 2016 Franny winner, Jerron and Melanie were recognized by the entire AlphaGraphics network and will be honored by the International Franchise Association (IFA) and its members at the International Franchising Association’s Public Affairs Conference in Washington D.C. in September.
"I’m deeply honored to receive this award," said Jerron. "Our center's success would not have been possible without our amazing team, my peers in the AlphaGraphics Network, our awesome customers, and of course the support of my wife, Melanie."
“We are thrilled to award the Hales this prestigious honor,” said Aaron Grohs, president of AlphaGraphics. “Their hard work on behalf of customers and dedication to operational excellence is a tremendous reflection of their commitment to the community and the success of their AlphaGraphics peers nationwide.”
