Milestone at Window World Youngstown
BOARDMAN, Ohio – Late last year, Window World Inc. sold the one-millionth window since its founding, owner Fred Moran reports. Actually, Window World is giving the window to the long-time customer, Anne Ringer of Hermitage, Pa., to celebate the milestone.
Bob Lawton, an 84-year-old salesman in the Youngstown office, sold the window to Ringer, who had bought eight windows over the years from the veteran salesman. As a result of her patronage, Window World will donate the window to her.
The odds were about one in 200 that the Youngstown franchise would sell the millionth window corporatewide, Moran estimated.
Window World of Youngstown is owned by Moran and his son, Pat. They also have outlets in Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Steubenville, Toledo, and Findlay in Ohio and Novi, Mich.
