Zoom Room, the indoor dog training gym franchise has named a new vice president of operations.
Don Allen has been brought on board and will spearhead operations. The company said the new vice president will be responsible for paving the way for sustained growth and achievement across the national franchise system.
According to Zoom Room’s website, the dog gym has nearly 70 locations in over 20 states. Plans are underway for another 56 locations.
Zoom Room said that Allen brings more than three decades of franchise operations experience. This includes working with Orangetheory Fitness while serving as CEO of an area developer group in Florida.
Allen also personally built eight franchise locations from the ground up and helped develop 20 additional units before the group was sold to private equity. During this time, Allen was responsible for increasing net income by 700 percent over five years, according to Zoom Room.
“I see a lot of similarities between Zoom Room and Orangetheory in terms of their commitment to excellence and unique market position,” said Allen. “I am excited to join a brand that has created something truly distinctive in the pet training space.”
Allen also recently built out 32 fitness franchises of another fitness brand and is an investor and area developer with KidStrong, a child development training center franchise.
“Don’s experience and passion will be invaluable as we concentrate on elevating the success of our franchisees and solidifying Zoom Room’s position as a leader in the pet industry,” said Zoom Room CEO Mark Van Wye.
Zoom Room was founded in 2007 and is based Culver City, California.
