Gregory J. Carafello, President of Cartridge World America, joins the Int’l ITC’s Board of Directors.
The International Imaging Technology Council (Int’l ITC) announced that Gregory J. Carafello, President of Cartridge World America, has joined its board of directors. Carafello has been the largest master franchisee of Cartridge World for 20 years.
“Greg Carafello brings a wealth of business experience and industry expertise that will greatly benefit the Int’l ITC and the industry in general,” said Int’l ITC Executive Director Tricia Judge. “Cartridge World and the Int’l ITC have had a relationship for years, and this takes that relationship to the next level.”
He received a “Smart CEO Top 50 Fastest Growing firms Award” in 2017 and has been a major player in the Cartridge World Franchise community. In 2016 and after three years of work, Carafello became a Certified Franchise Executive, and was only one of 1048 applicants out of 44,000 to achieve this accreditation. He has several other accreditations in business planning and the healthcare industry. He is also a survivor of the 9-11 tragedy, as he and his business were located in the World Trade Center on 11 September 2001.
“I am very excited to be part of the Int’l ITC organisation to add value where I can for the industry and the organisation itself,” Carafello said. “At Cartridge World, we pride ourselves on doing the right thing with regard to IP for the industry and our franchisees. As we re-establish the Cartridge World brand for high growth, we look forward to continuing to expand the reputation of the aftermarket products and we know a close relationship with this long-term, highly-valued organisation will be a great asset to us all.”
