Turbo Tint expands into Nevada, Arizona and Texas via new ownership
Moran Family of Brands has reached an agreement with Clear Window Solutions to expand its car care brand to add 12 new locations.
Moran Family of Brands, one of the leading franchises of general automotive repair, transmission repair and window tint services in the U.S., announced a new development agreement with Clear Window Solutions to expand its Turbo Tint brand to the Las Vegas, Phoenix, Tucson and Houston markets.
The first store is expected to open in Las Vegas later this year. Turbo Tint specializes in automotive and architectural window tint services. Under the brand’s concept, customers can purchase an automotive tint package and schedule an appointment online. When they arrive for service, they will only need to select their desired shade of window film. The entire installation process is completed in one hour or less.
Moran’s CEO and Co-Founder Barbara Moran-Goodrich has partnered with Franchise Update Chairman Gary Gardner to create a new franchise ownership group, Clear Window Solutions. Under the relationship, Gardner will oversee market development, site selection and buildout while Moran-Goodrich will manage the operations side of the business.
“I am thrilled to join Gary Gardner on this business venture as we bring the Turbo Tint concept to the Las Vegas market. I have been friends with Gary for many years and he was very impressed with Turbo Tint’s quick-installation, online purchasing and scheduling concept as he was looking for franchise investment opportunities,” said Moran-Goodrich.
The first Turbo Tint store opened in Oklahoma in October 2020 and there are currently two additional open locations in Florida with signed agreements for 46 more stores. Moran expects to open five or six stores in the first quarter of 2023 and anticipates having 18-21 stores operating by the end of the year.
