Entrepreneurs and longtime colleagues, Sam Baaklini and Eddy Chan, have long shared a vision of building a legacy for their families while acting on their passion for community service. The two have decided to take the leap and venture into the world of home care franchising with Griswold. 

With a rich background as Allstate insurance agency owners and financial advisors, Baaklini and Chan not only have a wealth of business expertise but also a genuine passion for serving others. Their decision to join forces with Griswold, a home care company with a presence of 170-plus locations in 32 states, aligns seamlessly with their desire to make a meaningful impact.

Baaklini previously engaged in a successful partnership with a junk removal franchise and found success working as a financial services professional with Allstate for over a decade. His remarkable achievements as the top performer in Financial Services in California on numerous occasions underscore his commitment to excellence. Recently, Baaklini relocated to Las Vegas to be closer to his family, and decided to pursue his aspiration to assist seniors and contribute to the well-being of the community. 

“I wanted to create a business centered around helping the community, and seniors definitely need help at the moment,” said Baaklini. “If I can make a living by doing some good and helping others, I think that’s a great way to support myself.”

Chan, a seasoned Allstate agent of 10 years, had a similar aspiration inspired by personal experiences. Chan provided care for his father after a stroke and the experience taught him the importance of high quality home care.

When the two Allstate colleagues realized their mutual desire to make a positive impact on the seniors in their community, they decided to join forces.

“Sam and I saw an opportunity to contribute to our community while building a legacy for our families,” said Chan.

Griswold’s robust business model and franchisee support gave the pair the confidence to become business owners with the brand. 

“Griswold's extensive industry presence and its proven business model were main factors in our decision,” said Chan. “We believe in the brand's commitment to excellence and view it as a strong foundation for our entry into the home care sector.”

Looking ahead, with confidence in Griswold’s model and values, the pair hope to increase their impact over time. 

“Our aspirations include significant growth and service expansion,” said Baaklini. “We aim to serve the communities in and around Las Vegas initially, with a broader vision of extending our reach to help as many people as possible.”
