Ziebart’s ‘Record Year’ Powered by New Stores
Automotive franchisor Ziebart International Corp. is on course for a record year as it enters two new master license agreements overseas, as well as another U.S. license agreement. Ziebart is also opening three more U.S. stores, and expanding two others, according to the company.
The new master license agreements have been awarded to National Automotive Co. (NATCO) in Giza, Egypt and Purdy Auto S.A. in San Jose, Costa Rica.
The newest U.S. license was awarded to Nicholas Lambie for Morgantown, West Virginia.
“We are very excited for the openings of these locations. NATCO has a long-standing history of doing business (in Egypt) and Purdy Auto S.A. also has an established presence throughout their country,” said Thomas E. Wolfe, president and CEO of Ziebart International Corp. “We are optimistic for their success and we look forward to our business relationship with both companies for many years to come.”
Wolfe added that the new West Virginia location represents the company’s re-entrance into the growing market there. The company is also opening stores in Quakertown, Pennsylvania, Clinton Township, Michigan, and Dallas.
