Stephen Kouroupas

Before selling his own business through Transworld, Steve spent more than nine years owning and operating a multi-unit signs and graphics franchise, growing from a single location to four through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions. Before that, he spent nearly a decade as an executive at a publicly traded printing and packaging company - overseeing a $200 million business unit and leading mergers and acquisitions work. Earlier still, two decades in senior sales and general management roles gave him a broad foundation in operations, finance, and strategy. That mix of franchise operator, corporate executive, and active dealmaker shapes how he works with clients today. Steve is particularly well-suited to advise owners in franchise businesses, manufacturing, and signs and graphics - sectors where he brings experience most brokers can't match. He’s based in Coastal North Carolina.
