PuroClean Celebrates 10 Years of Visionary Leadership Under Mark W. Davis and Frank Torre

Milestone Marks a Decade of Lasting Impact on Communities, Franchise Owners, and the Restoration Industry

TAMARAC, Fla., Dec. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- PuroClean, one of the country's leading property restoration and remediation franchises, is celebrating a landmark milestone: the 10-year leadership anniversary of Chairman & CEO Mark W. Davis and Vice Chairman Frank Torre. Since acquiring the brand in September 2015, the duo has overseen its expansion from 222 locations to more than 500 across the U.S. and Canada—a milestone reached earlier this year. Their decade of leadership reflects a commitment to strategic, sustainable growth, operational excellence, and strong Franchise Owner support.

"We are incredibly proud of what our network has achieved. Today, PuroClean stands strong with more than 500 locations across North America and an exceptional community of Franchise Owners who embody the very essence of our mission," said Davis. "As we reflect on this 10-year milestone in our collective PuroClean journey, our focus remains clear: to support our Franchise Owners daily, to strengthen the PuroClean brand throughout the US and Canada, and to continue building a brand defined by people, passion, and purpose."

When Davis and Torre took ownership a decade ago, their goal was clear: to build PuroClean into a World-Class Brand that could serve more communities with compassion, technical expertise, and unparalleled service. As a privately owned company, they focused on long-term growth and investing in people, systems, and infrastructure, differentiating PuroClean from many industry players focused on private equity-driven rapid expansion. Today, that vision has become reality, reflected in a 5x increase in average franchise unit sales, expanded training and in-field support initiatives, stronger insurance partnerships, and operational excellence achieved across the network.

In addition, PuroClean further advanced its operations strength with a redesigned vendor partnership model built around value, innovation, cultural alignment, and scalability, connecting the network with high-performing partners who can consistently support growth and service excellence across all markets.

A Decade Defined by Growth, Impact, and Industry Recognition

Under Davis and Torre's leadership, PuroClean has achieved a sustained trajectory of award-winning performance and innovation. The brand has earned recognition from leading franchise and business authorities, including:

• Entrepreneur's Top 500, Fastest-Growing Franchises, and Top Global Franchises
• Franchise Business Review awards for Top Franchises for Women, Veterans, Culture, and Most Profitable Franchises
• Franchise Times Zor Award, named one of the Top 10 Best Franchises to Buy

"Ten years ago, we set out to invest in people, programs, and culture, and today, the results truly speak for themselves," said Torre. "This milestone is a testament to the unwavering commitment of every PuroClean team member and PuroClean Franchise Owners who embraced our vision. It also reflects the strength of purpose-driven initiatives like PuroVet, which continues to open doors for veterans to build successful futures through business ownership. I'm incredibly proud of what we've built, and more than ever, by the opportunities ahead to elevate PuroClean and expand our impact together."
