HISTORY WITH TWO MEN AND A TRUCK®
Randy Shacka got his start at the TWO MEN AND A TRUCK corporate office in Lansing, Mich., as an intern in the marketing department while finishing his degree in engineering at Michigan State University. After completing his internship in 2002, Shacka accepted an opportunity in Florida to help open a new franchise in Seminole County. It was in his role as Operations Manager for TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Seminole that he learned every aspect of the job from a franchise perspective — from mover to manager and everything in between.
In 2004, Shacka returned to Home Office as a Franchise Development Specialist tasked with assisting current franchisees in growing their business and adding new franchisees to the growing TWO MEN AND A TRUCK system.
During the past decade, Shacka has served TWO MEN AND A TRUCK as Franchise Development Specialist, Director of Operations, Chief Development Officer (CDO) and most recently Chief Operating Officer (COO) in 2011.
Shacka took over the reins as president on August 1, 2012, a position formerly held by Chief Brand Officer Brig Sorber. This change marks the first time the company is led by someone outside of the Sorber family.
Shacka has played an integral role in developing process improvements and new technologies that have chartered the company toward its most successful period in the history of the company, including more than 95 consecutive months of growth. His vast experience at franchise and corporate levels provide him unique insight into the TWO MEN AND A TRUCK system, and he will continue to lead development of new tools and systems that will allow the company to thrive.
