ProntoWash USA Opens Mobile Car Wash
and Detailing Operation in Pasadena, Calif
February 1, 2006 - MIAMI -
ProntoWash USA, an international franchise-based mobile car
wash, detailing and paintless dent repair operation, announced
today that it has opened a new location at the Paseo Colorado
Mall in Pasadena, Calif. This will be the company’s third
location in California. Its other two locations are at Plaza
Bonita and Horton Plaza in San Diego, Calif.
Located in the mall’s lower level parking garage near Macy’s,
the car wash will open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.,
and will be a convenient time-saving service – customers can
shop at the mall, while their cars are detailed. Using its
space-age mobile pods, ProntoWash offers customers hand
car-washing and waxing, interior detailing and cleaning (vacuum,
leather treatment and shampoo among others) and exterior
detailing. Its environmentally friendly approach provides a
number of advantages over traditional car wash operations,
including the use of a biodegradable, highly concentrated,
foamless detergent which requires minimal use of water and
energy.
Franchisees Peter Mott and Robin Jarrett of WordLife
Communications, who are the Regional ProntoWash Masters for Los
Angeles County, will own and operate the ProntoWash location.
“A growing number of entrepreneurs are discovering the benefits
of how the franchise system can provide them with the processes,
systems and support needed to manage a successful business and
have long-term security in today’s economic climate,” said Larry
Kruguer, CEO of ProntoWash USA. “We will continue to
aggressively expand our unique concept in California and are
targeting savvy individuals who are looking to own and operate
their own franchise business.”
“My brother and I were looking for a turn-key business that
required minimal infrastructure, had a quick turn-around time
and had a low initial investment cost,” said Peter Mott. “We
chose to own and operate a ProntoWash franchise because the
executives are dedicated to providing us with extensive
marketing, promotional, sales and training support to help us
get our business off the ground and be profitable.”
