Meet The Nashville Crew
John Manning
Franchise Store Owner Little Guy since 2011In 2006, I moved to Murfreesboro, TN with my wife and kids. A few years later, in 2011, I joined the Little Guys Movers team and opened the Murfreesboro Little Guys Movers location as Branch Manager. After more than a decade, I decided I was ready for a new challenge — becoming a Little Guys franchise owner. Nashville seemed like the perfect place to grow a company like Little Guys Movers. The Nashville community thrives on quality service and support, which is exactly what we provide. I’m excited to see our location grow as we lift up our employees, our customers, and our community.
