KANSAS CITY, KS, January 21, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Big Bob's Flooring announced that effective 1/1/2016, Vinnie Virga has purchased controlling interest in the company and has begun leading the day-to-day executive management. Founder and leader of the company for 33 years, David Elyachar, will finally get some well-deserved rest.
Mr. Elyachar, aka "Big Bob", will act as the Chairman Emiritus for the company and will continue to provide creative marketing while still being featured in the company's commercials. "After working with Vinnie for the last four years, the management team and I couldn't be more pleased or excited for our current franchises, our vendor partners and prospective franchisees to experience Vinnie's leadership, energy and commitment to excellence. He will provide great programs and services that will increase our members bottom line profits," said Big Bob. Over the next several years, the group is expected to grow exponentially, and this transition will allow Big Bob to begin estate planning and pursue other interests.
Virga, well known for previously running all of CCA Global Partners Retail Groups and Flooring America, and for having developed a "Big" flooring footprint in New England, said "the timing is perfect, as we have put a great management team in place for my existing five-store, New England-based business. By purchasing the majority of the franchise system I am now able to focus all of my energies on helping our incredible members. Through supporting our core values, helping our vendor partners grow, and leading a new generation of prospective franchisees to realize immense success via our group, I will be able to continue the great legacy Mr. Elyachar has invested 33 years in building."
