Office Pride founder and CEO Todd Hopkins was inducted as a new member of the Building Service Contractors Association International (BSCAI) Board of Directors during the BSCAI's 2014 CEO Seminar in St. Maarten.

BSCAI is the leading trade association in the commercial cleaning industry, boasting more than 800 members in the U.S. and around the world in such industries as cleaning, facility maintenance, security, landscaping and other services for building owners and managers. People in the building service contract industry use BSCAI as a source for industry research and analysis, seminars, continuing education and its members-only purchasing program, among other resources.

"I am thrilled that Todd Hopkins has joined the BSCAI board," said Yasser Youssef, president of The Budd Group and current BSCAI president. "Todd and Office Pride have been active in the association for many years. I know with Todd's increased involvement with the board he will be able to join other industry leaders in guiding our association and membership through many of the upcoming opportunities in the industry. Todd brings a unique perspective to the board with his depth of experience in the industry and in creating value through a successful franchise model."

This is Hopkins' second stint on the board, and his appointment speaks to his reputation as one of the most respected leaders in the commercial cleaning industry. Todd has always been committed to cutting-edge business practices, management philosophy, training and business practices, including the company's three-cloth cleaning system and its use of peer groups to provide extra support to franchisees.

"Todd is one of the first contractors I met when I joined BSCAI in 1997," said Dennis Richards of Puritan Cleaning Professionals. "Since that time he has been a trusted friend and a great source of instruction and encouragement. His leadership in the industry, whether it is authoring books, publishing relevant articles or building his business to have a national presence, has helped raise the bar of excellence."

Office Pride's 20-plus years of commercial cleaning franchise experience and ongoing commitment to Biblical principles have helped make them a leader in the industry.
