Meet Our Owners
John & Sue Sala began their career as a Wild Bird Center franchisee in April 2003 when they purchased the Timonium, MD Wild Bird Center franchise operation. Since then they have become multiple store owners and are excellent at employing the Wild Bird Center system to their best advantage. When asked how they chose Wild Bird Centers, they say:
“Before buying a Wild Bird Center franchise we talked with as many owners as possible so we were well informed about our decision. Once of the best experiences running this business is the help and support from franchise headquarters.”
