BELFOR Franchise Group announces the launch of the Claims Partnership Program, offering customized training for property claims professionals. This program aims to address the gap created by retiring veterans and new entrants in the claims industry.
“Veterans are important to us, and we want to make sure they are treated with respect in our franchise system for the sacrifices they have made,” said Tim Fagan, president of 1-800 WATER DAMAGE. “Often, veterans have many of the characteristics that we look for in a franchisee – hardworking, able to follow a system, and a desire to help others. All of these are essential in our business.”
Tour the 95,000-square-foot Blue Kangaroo Packoutz flagship facility. See the inner workings of the warehouse, including 750 storage vaults, a state-of-the-art training room, art restoration, contents cleaning, furniture upholstery and refinishing, and more.
