Sir Grout Awards Various Franchises for Their Outstanding Achievements

Sir Grout honors its most dedicated franchise members by presenting them with awards at its annual meeting.


Each February, Sir Grout gathers together its nationwide hard surface restoration franchises for an annual meeting and award ceremony in sunny Estero Beach, Florida. This is a time for training, bonding, and applauding both each other and the company itself on the completion of another triumphant year. A more in-depth account of Sir Grout's annual convention of tile and grout professionals can be found on its blog.


At this year's ceremony, awards were presented to only a select few Sir Grout franchises. The awards that were given this year and their winners are as follows:
  • "Million Dollar Club" & "Grout Man of the Year" - Sir Grout of Chicago, owner Dan Lundstedt

    This award bestowal was a result of the Boston franchise proving itself to be one-of-a-kind when uniting over their common goal of restoring tile and grout, stone, and wood surfaces.

  • "Rookie of the Year" - Sir Grout of New York, owner Eddie Moleros

  • "Rookie of the Year" - Sir Grout of Central New Jersey, owner Kris MacDermant
The Central New Jersey and New York Sir Grout franchise locations were deemed to be the most worthy rookies to earn this honor due to the hard work and commitment they've demonstrated as new franchises.

On the topic of these acknowledgments, Tom Lindberg, Sir Grout's co-founder, stated, "Bringing all the franchises together and showing our gratitude to them is important to us. The satisfaction provided to our clients across the country proves how lucky we are to have such a motivated team of workers, and it's only right that we take time to reward their hard work. Seeing how well the owners have done with their individual franchises encourages us in our goal of expanding the company to include more locations, so we're always on the lookout for new Sir Grout franchise owners of the same high quality."
