For the seventh year in a row, CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts has made the list of the Top 200 Franchise Networks by Franchise Times magazine. Ranked at 117, CARSTAR is the highest-ranking collision repair company.
Franchise Times specifically targets franchisors and franchisees with more than 400,000 units worldwide. Franchise Times researches companies' annual reports and publicly available data on the nation's 200 largest franchise systems and ranks them based on last year's global system wide sales. Eligibility to be included in this ranking requires a company to be a legal U.S franchise, where franchisees must own at least 15 percent of the company’s total units.
"We are honored to be ranked among the Top 200 franchises, and lead the automotive and collision repair industry in the ranking," says David Byers, CEO of CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts. "We are proud of our store owners and the work of our more than 430 locations across North America in contributing to this honor."
