Craters & Freighters Franchise South Chicago

A Testimonial to Realizing the Dream

Bill and Janet Fastabend wanted to start their own company and be closer to family and friends when they purchased their Craters & Freighters franchise in south Chicago in September 1998. Working in corporate America and education for more than 30 years, the Fastabends had to quickly learn a new business and build their client base.

With their dedicated work, determination and the support of Craters & Freighters headquarters in Denver, this husband and wife team thrived as independent business owners. Finding their niche in industrial crating and one-time special shipments, the Fastabend's business grew steadily and they reached reached their business dream of a $1 million year.

The hardest challenge was yet to come. In May 2007, Bill passed away and Janet decided to sell the business. During the next very difficult months, the Craters & Freighters family network offered amazing support. The corporate headquarters staff assisted Janet where and when needed, and helped her get through an overwhelming and difficult time. Franchise owners from other states pitched in to help her run the business. As a result of all this support, Janet changed her mind about selling the franchise.

Today her Craters & Freighters franchise is still growing and enabling Janet to continue her dream.

Please note this franchise is currently only accepting inquiries from AL, AK, AZ, CA, DE, GA, IN, KY, MI, NJ, NM, NY, PA, RI, SC, TX, and WI. Intersted parties should have at least $100K to invest.
