YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – It was a year of awards and giving back for Window World Penn Ohio. In August, the Moran family, owners of six Window World franchises, received the Store of the Year Award from Window World Inc. at the 2024 Window World Family Reunion in Orlando, Fla.
Four of the Moran family’s six locations were honored: Youngstown, Pittsburgh, Upper Ohio Valley and Toledo.
The Moran group’s Window World locations were selected from over 220 franchises across the United States. Selection criteria included growth, success and a steadfast commitment to customer satisfaction.
“In all six of our locations, we have the best of the best,” says Mandi Fluck. “We are grateful to have an exceptional team and amazing customers who are part of our family.”
Last fall, owner Pat Moran surprised his dad, Fred, by donating $500,000 toward the renovation of Beeghly Center at Youngstown State University, where the south lobby will be named the “Window World Fred and Lucy Moran Lobby.”
Fred’s wife of 66 years, Lucy, died in January 2024.
Fred Moran subsequently honored Lucy with a $300,000 donation to support the Fullness of Life, Future of Hope Campaign to benefit Ursuline Sisters in their retirement and sustaining the Ursuline Sisters Mission. The lobby of the Ursuline Motherhouse will be named in memory of Lucy.
Window World Penn Ohio, founded in 2003, employs 75 at its stores in Youngstown, Akron, Cleveland and Toledo, Pittsburgh and Weirton, W.Va. The company provides homeowners with replacement windows, doors, siding and gutter protection.
