TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® Looks To Expand In Mid-Atlantic And West Coast
Markets To Meet Growing Demand
LANSING, Mich., Nov. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Double-digit growth
for a record 36 months, new milestones for number of moves and
franchise locations, and record revenue figures are responsible for
increased franchise development activity for leading moving
company, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® (www.twomenandatruck.com). New stores
in San Diego, Calif. and
Westchester, N.Y., in particular,
reflect a growing interest in coastal markets. As a result, the
company plans further expansion in Southern California and the Mid-Atlantic
states in the next 12 months.
"We learned many valuable lessons during our first few years of
franchising," says TWO MEN AND A TRUCK CEO Brig Sorber. "Namely, in
order to be successful, our geographic growth had to build on the
success of existing stores in the region. As a result, we've been
very deliberate in our approach to new markets. Today, we have a
level of store density that allows us to successfully expand in key
markets that present tremendous opportunity for our brand, and
we're encouraged by the early success of our new stores."
The company currently has more than 230 locations providing
local and long-distance moving services to 34 U.S. states and three
additional countries: Canada,
England and Ireland.
"A quick scan of our map of locations shows great store
concentration right down the middle of the country and, to a lesser
degree, west towards Phoenix and
east to New York," says
Kelly Rogers, director of franchise
development for TWO MEN AND A TRUCK. "We see great opportunity for
growth in the Western and Mid-Atlantic regions of the country."
TWO MEN AND A TRUCK routinely ranks among Entrepreneur
magazine's "Franchise 500" listing of top franchise opportunities,
and Franchise Business Review ranks the company among the
top 15 franchise opportunities based on a poll of current franchise
operator satisfaction.
