Westerly, RI – Wireless Zone, the nation’s largest wireless retail franchise and exclusive provider of Verizon Wireless products and services, will celebrate the opening of its newest location in Westerly, RI on November 18, 2017, with a ribbon cutting at 10:30am.
The new location at 224 Post Road will provide both an unparalleled wireless experience and dedication to community partnership. The business is owned by local entrepreneurs Neil Ryan and Scott Gladstone and will serve as a one-stop-shop for a wide range of wireless products and services.
Ryan and Gladstone now own a total of seven Wireless Zone locations across the region. Wireless Zone stores are known for their personalized expert service, and this location is no exception. By implementing comprehensive training and support provided by Wireless Zone, the new team in Westerly is fully prepared for a successful launch.
“When selecting franchisees, we seek out business-savvy individuals who are committed to becoming the local go-to wireless professional,” said Wireless Zone Executive Vice President, Dave Staszewki. “Our big emphasis is on local, as our franchisees become ingrained in the community and play an important role in our ongoing growth strategy and brand connections. Neil and Scott share our values, and I’m confident they will be a trusted asset to the Westerly community.”
Gladstone and Ryan have focused in philanthropy at their other Wireless Zone locations as well, helping dozens of local charities. Last year donations from their stores through the Wireless Zone Foundation for Giving exceeded $50,000 for local charities in the communities that they serve, and the business owners are committed to growing that positive impact with the opening of the new Westerly location.
Wireless Zone stores are technology solution centers dedicated to providing customers the latest smartphones, tablets, accessories, wireless technology and full-service phone and screen repair. Franchise opportunities have been available since 1989, with ongoing support offered to owners through newsletters, meetings, grand openings, field operations and more.
