Fontis Water founder aims to provide Georgia with the best
At Fontis Water, Jamie Carroll carries on the family tradition of bottling pure, natural mountain spring water. A family-owned and operated company, Fontis Water specializes in home and office delivery of bottled water.
“I grew up in the business,” said the Marietta native.
For 20 years, Carroll’s family owned Georgia Mountain Water, Georgia’s largest family-owned water company. They sold it in 2000. After GMW, Carroll operated Carolina Mountain Water and then opened Fontis in 2003.
The 35-year-old entrepreneur started working in the business at age 14. He uses his experience to set Fontis apart in the highly competitive beverage market where there are plenty of options. He said that his goal is to give families and businesses impeccable service they should expect from their bottled-water provider.
According to Carroll, customer service is what makes Fontis stand out above its competitors. “We always prided ourselves on our customer service,” the said 1993 Sprayberry High School graduate.
Fontis, serving Atlanta and the north Georgia area, continues to enjoy growth because Fontis builds relationships with its customers. “When someone calls, 99 percent of the time we pick up the call on the first ring and they’re talking to a live person,” he said. "We’re always in direct contact with customers and our drivers and our trucks. It’s just that attention to detail and service that sets us apart.
“Bigger isn’t always better,” he said.
Fontis water comes from a cold, deep rock spring in the Georgia Blue Ridge Mountains on family-owned land and is available in 5-gallon, 3-gallon, 1-gallon and single serving bottles. Fontis offers other services and products including break room service.
“My dream is to provide Georgians with their very own ultra-pure, fresh and invigorating bottled natural spring water, affordably priced and delivered with a friendly smile,” Carroll said.
Fontis is located at 3929 Canton Road in Marietta, between the Chastain Connector and Hawkins Store Road. To learn more about its other products and services, visit www.fontiswater.com or call (678) 494-1981.
