Inside United Water Restoration Group's 2024 Franchise Conference

United Water Restoration Group (UWRG), a prominent name in disaster recovery and restoration services, recently concluded its 2024 Franchise Conference, encapsulating a theme of “People, Performance, Profits: The Ripple Effect.” Held in the picturesque Palm Springs, the event drew participants from across the nation, including founders, franchisees and employees, providing a rare opportunity for the UWRG family to unite and share insights.

In addition to expert speakers and group events, the conference featured an eagerly anticipated Awards Night, where standout franchisees were honored for their exceptional contributions and achievements over the past year. 

"Awards Night is always the highlight of the conference for me — it is an opportunity to recognize top-performers who poured their hearts and souls into their teams and companies, and it's a blessing to be able to help them celebrate their wins," Moore said.
