You may often see and hear local community members talking about hire local or buy local. In our area, the Kankakee County Chamber of Commerce has a slogan "shop small, shop local, shop Kankakee County. Well that's not just a tag line. It's a necessity in order for small businesses to survive and thrive. Every job completed locally helps employees via pay checks. Using local companies also helps the local tax base via sales tax and income tax for those working at these locally owned businesses.
SERVPRO of Kankakee County is locally owned and operated by the Nichols family. Bobby Nichols has spent over 25 years in the restoration and construction industry. His wife, Kata is a veterinarian by trade and has worked in the business since 2010. Their SERVPRO franchise consistently ranks in the Top 100 franchises in the United States and Canada.
