Johnny Fayne
President and Chief Executive Officer
In 2005, after a very successful 20-year management career in International Freight Operations at FedEx, Johnny embarked on a new venture, starting Fresh Start Facility Services, Inc. with other members of his family. They knew they had the right connections, the right know-how and the passion and determination necessary to enter into the facility services industry. Johnny worked another 9 years with FedEx, and was recognized as Manager of the Year upon his retirement in 2016. During this time, he assumed full control of Fresh Start Facility Services, Inc. and oversaw the rapid growth in staff and managed square footage. His years of high-performance management experience led Fresh Start Facility Services, Inc. to quickly gain a reputation for commercial cleaning excellence in and around the Tri-State area. His commitment to creating a work environment in which people feel respected and valued is very much rooted in the years he and his wife spent mentoring men and women dealing with drug and alcohol addiction. One of Johnny’s chief missions is to fight for a livable wage for the staff he employs.
