(April 30, 2024) – PIRTEK USA, an on-site and retail hydraulic and industrial hose service provider, is revitalizing its corporate office and accelerating its growth with the hiring of John Dobelbower as the brand’s new Vice President of Franchise Development. With an impressive background in franchising and a proven track record of driving exponential growth, Dobelbower is poised to spearhead PIRTEK USA’s expansion initiatives across the nation.

Before joining PIRTEK USA, Dobelbower was the Director of Franchise Development at Neighborly, overseeing the successful growth of brands such as Grounds Guys and Lawn Pride.

With a meticulous focus on process optimization and relationship-building, Dobelbower intends to exceed growth projections and establish PIRTEK USA as the franchising industry’s gold standard. “My leadership style revolves around collaboration and investment in people and processes,” he continued. “By implementing proven strategies and fostering a culture of excellence, we will elevate both candidate and franchisee satisfaction.”

With the PIRTEK franchise system already growing exponentially after the first quarter of the year and no end in sight for the brand, the brand needed a proven, trustworthy, and personable leader at the helm of its franchise expansion efforts. As the brand embarks on this transformative journey under Dobelbower’s leadership, the company reaffirms its commitment to delivering premium products and services while empowering franchise owners to thrive in a dynamic market landscape.
