Honest Abe Roofing Announces Signed Franchise Agreement to Expand into Louisville, Kentucky
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Honest Abe Roofing announced a signed franchise agreement to bring a new location to Louisville, marking its first location to open in Kentucky. Behind the agreement is Don Lanier, who owns an Honest Abe Roofing franchise in Evansville, Ind.
Lanier’s entrepreneurial story took off once he came across Honest Abe Roofing. In 2017, after spending his whole life working in the construction field, Lanier and his wife, Deborah, moved from California to Indiana looking to retire. He soon realized he was bored with retirement and went in for an interview at Honest Abe Roofing for a sales position. Company executives were so impressed with Lanier that not only was he offered the sales job, but he was also given the option to open the first-ever Honest Abe Roofing franchise.
