Annapolis Entrepreneur Charles Griffin Launches Kitchen Guard into Maryland, Virginia, and Washington DC
Kitchen Guard, the premier provider of commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning services (KEC), announces today its expansion into select territories of Maryland, Northern Virginia, and Washington D.C. under the leadership of new franchise owner Charles Griffin. This growth underscores Kitchen Guard’s commitment to ensuring the safety and efficiency of commercial kitchens through full-service exhaust cleaning services.
Kitchen Guard offers comprehensive cleaning services that deliver value and protection beyond compliance and with a level of professionalism uncommon in the industry. Unlike other providers, Kitchen Guard adheres to the highest standards of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), ensuring that every commercial kitchen it serves is clean, safe from fire hazards, and compliant with all local, state, and federal regulations. This distinction is crucial for restaurant owners and kitchen operators seeking to protect their investments and maintain a secure environment for employees and patrons.
Charles’s philosophy of success is centered on effective leadership and mentorship. As a former collegiate athlete at UMASS and UMaine and current youth sports coach, Charles believes each day is an opportunity to learn and teach something new. This philosophy led Charles to a successful career as an IT consultant-turned-defense contractor and small business owner. The success of his approach is not focused on just the needs of the business but the growth and care for an individual’s needs to be their best self.
“I have an insatiable passion for helping people push beyond their boundaries, watching them grow and reach levels they never thought possible,” said Charles. “There is a real significance in setting and achieving professional and personal milestones that should be celebrated at every opportunity. This is how I approach my new role with Kitchen Guard.”
Charles recognizes the passion, hard work, and dedication that many restaurant owners put into the success of their businesses. Crafting the perfect dish for their patrons is their goal. He aims to ensure that the restaurant’s exhaust systems are cleaned, maintained, compliant, and in safe operational function, so that their focus remains on their customer.
Kitchen Guard’s entry into these markets marks an essential milestone in the company’s mission to elevate the standards of commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning. With Charles at the helm, restaurants from Maryland counties such as Annapolis, Prince George, Baltimore, Arundel, and Montgomery, to our nation’s capital and Northern Virginia, can look forward to a new level of professionalism and safety in their kitchen operations.
As a seasoned professional and entrepreneur, Griffin’s professional desires drove him to create Next Rev Technologies, where technology and people intersect and thrive. A people-centric leader, Charles strives to develop a pathway for teams and customers to reach the next level. In his new role at Kitchen Guard, Charles brings that same leadership and customer-centric approach by partnering with customers to provide solutions that will allow them to stay focused on creating excellent culinary experiences and provide top notch service to their patrons.
