Chicago, IL — Corporate Pilot
Chicago is TrustPro's company-run proof of concept. Lead routing, call center scripts, CRM workflows and technician dispatch were tested here first, and every franchisee's training draws on how this location runs.
TrustPro operates in Chicago, North Dallas and Phoenix, with Houston expected to launch in around 60 days. Every system a new owner receives — lead routing, call center booking, CRM and dispatch — was built and tested in a working repair business before it was offered to franchisees.
TrustPro Appliance was founded by Sardor Umrdinov, who has led Home Alliance, Inc. since 2012. Home Alliance spent more than a decade building the lead generation infrastructure, call center and technology stack that every TrustPro franchisee inherits on day one. TrustPro isn't a concept — it's an operating repair business made available to qualified entrepreneurs.
