30-years of experience in a new franchise program. Two different models: The GF Professional offers a defined territory and a lower investment. This may even be home-based. No prior construction experience is needed. The GF Showroom is perfect for the experienced business manager, or a current GF Professional who is ready to expand. This option requires a showroom, warehouse and a staff to operate. We will of course be there along the way. This is a ground-floor opportunity with a discount for veterans. Financing available.
