76 FENCE Greater Columbus Celebrates Grand Opening, Launching New Era of Professional Fencing Services Across Central Ohio

August 24, 2026 // FranchisePR.com // COLUMBUS, Ohio – 76 FENCE Greater Columbus celebrated the launch of its Columbus-based fencing business last week with a grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony alongside the Columbus Chamber of Commerce, local business leaders, family, friends, and community members.

The August 20th celebration took place at the company’s new headquarters at 204 Oak St. in Columbus and included remarks from Franchise Owner and Regional Developer Dominic Rizzo MD and Kristin Mallory, Government Relations Manager for the Columbus Chamber of Commerce, followed by a ceremonial ribbon cutting, networking, and refreshments.

For Rizzo, a Cincinnati native and physician with more than 25 years of experience, the grand opening marks the transition into entrepreneurship and the establishment of 76 FENCE in the Columbus area.

“Opening our doors in Columbus is an exciting milestone, but for us, this is really just the beginning,” said Dominic Rizzo MD, franchise owner and regional developer of 76 FENCE Greater Columbus. “I’ve spent my career focused on helping people, solving problems and providing a high level of care, and I see many of those same principles carrying over into the business we’re building here. We want our customers to know they can expect professionalism, clear communication, and a team that genuinely cares about doing the job right. I’m incredibly grateful to my family, our 76 FENCE team, the Columbus Chamber of Commerce, and everyone who has supported us in getting to this point.”

76 FENCE Greater Columbus provides residential and commercial fence solutions across the region, including Columbus, Bexley, Blacklick, Canal Winchester, Circleville, Galloway, Grove City, Groveport, Hilliard, New Albany and Westerville, among others. The company focuses on custom fencing services with attention to workmanship and customer communication.

The business uses tools to visualize fencing projects before installation. Residential growth in Greater Columbus has contributed to demand for home exterior improvements.

“Dominic brings a unique combination of leadership, operational discipline, and genuine commitment to customer care that makes him an exceptional fit for 76 FENCE,” said Ed Samane, Chief Executive Officer of 76 FENCE. “We’re excited to see him bring our approach to fencing to homeowners and businesses throughout the region.”

As a Regional Developer for 76 FENCE, Rizzo’s role includes overseeing operations in the Columbus area and coordinating activities in the region.

The Columbus Chamber of Commerce joined Rizzo and the 76 FENCE Greater Columbus team to commemorate the grand opening and welcome the new business to the local community.

“We’re pleased to welcome 76 FENCE Greater Columbus and Dominic Rizzo to Columbus’ growing business community,” said Kristin Mallory, Government Relations Manager for the Columbus Chamber of Commerce. “Local businesses and entrepreneurs play an important role in the continued growth of our region, and the Chamber is proud to support companies that are investing and building relationships here in Columbus.”

Community involvement includes opportunities to support local beautification initiatives, safety programs, and community events in the region.
