Krisher Brings Experience in Building Scalable Systems to the Role
HomeFront Brands, a home services franchisor, has appointed Josh Krisher chief financial officer. Reporting to founder and CEO Jeff Dudan, Krisher spearheads all aspects of financial strategy, reporting and capital planning for HomeFront Brands’ portfolio, which includes Window Hero, Top Rail Fence, The Designery, Roof Scientist and Temporary Wall Systems.
“HomeFront Brands is redefining what it means to build a purpose-driven franchise platform. I’m excited to join Jeff and the leadership team to support our mission of empowering entrepreneurs and growing category-leading brands that serve essential needs in every community. This group has accomplished a great deal in a short period of time and is well-positioned to grow further. The organization has a passionate team focused on the success of franchise owners, and a collaborative, supportive group of franchisees,” Krisher said. “I’m excited to join a team focused on making multiple brands leaders in their respective industries, and I’m motivated by the strategic challenge of supporting and growing a multi-brand portfolio. My goal is to help guide the company through its next stage of growth by building the structure, systems and processes that enable sustainable scale.”
Before joining HomeFront, Krisher served as CFO of The Junkluggers, an eco-friendly junk removal franchise that he helped grow from a regional startup into a nationally recognized brand. In that role, he led financial strategy as the company expanded its franchise system, optimizing unit-level economics and building the financial and operational foundation that ultimately led to its acquisition by Authority Brands in 2022. He began his career as a senior accountant at Ernst & Young after earning his certified public accountant designation.
Dudan said Krisher is a great fit for his new role at HomeFront because of his proven ability to build scalable systems and drive disciplined financial performance while supporting aggressive growth. “His combination of franchise and finance experience will be invaluable as HomeFront Brands continues to expand across North America,” Dudan said.
Krisher, a graduate of the University of Washington’s Foster School of Business, spends his spare time with his family and friends, and he enjoys playing tennis and basketball, traveling, reading and learning.
