In early 1998 Mike Franzone was working in the carpet cleaning industry for a local company and came across an ad in a product magazine about ultrasonic blind cleaninig. Realizing the originality of this service he began to do some research and ultimately decided to pursue his dream of owning his own business.
Hang & Shine, Inc opened its doors in May of 1998 strictly as a blind cleaning operation. Soon after his younger brother Jon came home from college and became his partner. They walked fliers door to door everyday until the business was off and running. Every morning they picked up blinds and brought them back to their parents garage for cleaning and retuned them that same evening.They ran their business this way for about two years before opening their own location and building a mobile blind cleaning truck. It was at this time they realized what a huge market there was in selling blinds as well.
Now over 10 years later they have become one of the most recognized and trusted blind sales and cleaning companies in the Chicagoland area. Hang & Shine, Inc. is your one stop blind shop!
