Three Friends, Entrepreneurs, Open Unique Business In Malvern

MALVERN, PA -- Window Genie will hold the grand opening of their newest location in Malvern on September 19, they announced in a news release. The company, which specializes in residential and light commercial window cleaning, window tinting, pressure washing, gutter cleaning, and more, was founded by three friends. The trio will partner to own and operate the home service franchise that spans a service area of almost 200,000 households, the release states.

One owner, Matt Krueger, is no stranger to business ownership. Before he spent 13 years with Victory Brewing Company, most recently serving as their VP. Krueger owned his own restaurant for 3 years. Tom Kent, another one of the owners, is currently a Franchise Lawyer. The third owner, also a lawyer, will participate as a silent partner, the release states.

The three men met through a professional networking association almost 10 years ago and have since become good friends. Krueger, looking to move on from his job to pursue business ownership this past spring, approached Kent for advice, according to the company.

With intimate exposure to over 100 franchise brands over his career, Kent was able to provide Krueger with and insider’s perspective of the industry. “I reached out to Tom initially for his advice and to see if he could recommend a brand he trusted,” said Krueger. “Little did I know he was simultaneously pursuing business ownership himself. Kruger had been considering a Window Genie franchise, and recommended I look into their model myself. After we pulled in the third partner, we quickly decided on a partnership vs. branching out individually. We each bring something different to the table, so rather than stepping on each other’s toes and dividing up the territory, we’re hoping that 1 plus 1 plus 1 can equal 5.”

Window Genie of Malvern officially opens for business on Monday September 19, but will celebrate their opening week in a unique way. They will host their grand opening event at Paradise Farm Camps in Downingtown from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday September 23.

Food and beer will be served, and live music will be played. Window Genie will be at the camp all day prior to the event offering a free window cleaning as their way to showcase their team while providing a much needed service to the camp, according to the release.
