Great Clips featured in The Latino Journal

When you work for a company with more than a thousand franchise owners, there are many inspiring stories about success, leadership, compassion and generosity. Recently Great Clips owner Ken Gallegos was featured in The Latino Journal E-News, an e-zine that focuses on “public policy and government from a Latino perspective.” The article reports on the growth of Latino-owned businesses. Ken reveals that he was raised in a family of red, white and blue entrepreneurs who “‘ran a bar, restaurant and gas station.’” I’m happy to report that Ken borrowed on his DNA and opened his first Great Clips franchise seven years ago. Today he owns salons in Golden, Alamosa and Windsor, Colorado, and Taos, New Mexico, and plans to open two more. We’re proud Ken is part of our franchise family, and gratified that we can be a source of success and security for his family’s future.
