The first Ziebart location in The Netherlands had a soft opening in late August with an official opening planned for late September. A franchise agreement for a new location in Azerbaijan was recently signed, along with a location in Kuwait, both set to open in mid-October. In addition, there will be a new location in Iraq that will open in November. The Ivory Coast location is planning to open in early December, and both Nigeria and Greece locations are planning to open their doors in early 2023.
“We continue to see heightened demand for vehicle protection services domestically and overseas,” said Thomas A. Wolfe, president and CEO of Ziebart International Corporation. “As more consumers understand the value of investing in their current vehicles to keep them protected and looking like new, we foresee ongoing interest from Master Franchisees looking to bring Ziebart to their respective countries.”
In addition, the franchise also opened three new locations last year – Ontario, NY and Irmo, SC as well as an Australia location, the company said.
