Lansing’s own
Two Men and a Truck are moving on up. The company has grown 33 percent over the past two years and is currently operating 224 locations in 34 states. This year alone, Two Men and a Truck have signed three new franchise agreements, opened four new satellite offices and transferred five stores to new ownership.
“Our growth is tied directly to our goal of being the number one moving company in the world,” says Kelly Rogers, franchise development director for Two Men and a Truck. “Our system understands that every move we complete must deliver on our mission statement -to continuously strive to exceed our customer’s expectations in value and high standard of satisfaction. During the recession we never lost focus of this.”
That national growth has also meant growth here in Lansing. The company headquarters now has a staff of 76, after adding more than 25 positions over the last two years. According to Rogers, new positions will continue to be added at the company headquarters as Two Men and a Truck expect to see another 20 percent growth in 2012.
“Double digit growth and efficiencies in the system that drive customer satisfaction are definitely areas of focus as we set goals,” says Rogers. “In addition, we are looking at expansion on the East and West coasts as well as several creative initiatives we expect to accelerate our growth in coming years.”
