Jamie Carroll: Founder and President, Fontis Water
Jamie Carroll, owner of Fontis Water
Jamie Carroll is proud to follow in the footsteps of his family’s business traditions. Carroll, a 35-year-old East Cobb resident, is Founder and President of Fontis Water, located on Canton Road in Marietta. His father, Jim, and uncle, Steve, founded Georgia Mountain Water in 1980 and were very involved in community service in Cobb and the North Georgia area.
Carroll says the duo sold their business to Crystal Springs in 2000 and Jamie worked there until 2003. It was then he began Fortis and has never looked back.
“It takes a certain amount of commitment and willingness to put the time and effort into your own business,” says Carroll. “But it definitely pays off.”
Carroll is active in the Kennesaw and Acworth Business Associations as well as the Cobb Chamber of Commerce. He has over 2,000 business and residential customers throughout Georgia, and he has also added coffee service and single cup brew service.
“The past two years have been slower because of the economy, but things seem to be moving forward and growing,” says Carroll, who remembers some wise words his father gave him. “Dad told me that you have to be involved in your community – that’s your backyard,” says Carroll.
