As the old saying goes, “Knowledge is power.” To add to that, the actual application of knowledge is power, and one young Melanoid man is showing us that he is a living testament of this principle.

Shaun C. Robinson is the Founder, CEO & President of Strong College Students, a franchise that employs hard-working college students from local colleges and universities throughout the state of Florida. “My goal was to change the negative and poor perception of movers common in this industry. I also wanted to give college students the opportunity for employment that allowed them to balance the rigors of every day college life.” Mr. Robinson states.

The work that Robinson has put in has not gone unnoticed. He’s become the youngest Black franchisor in the United States, and has received a steadily growing list of awards that you can see here.

What’s great about the franchise is that college students are given employment, and it serves a wide array of clients, especially residential and office-based clients. One extension of the franchise, Dorm Room Boxes, operates as an independent entity of the Strong College Students brand, yet it provides equally great service to clients having their moving needs addressed.
