Fix Auto Adds 50th Franchise Location in California

Milestone achieved as part of business' expansion across four states.

Fix Auto recently announced the addition of its 50th franchise location.

The milestone was achieved as part of the company’s continued franchise expansion across four states. The newest California locations include:  

•    Fix Auto Chula Vista, owned by Dan and Karen Greenwald and previously known as Greenwald’s Autobody and Frameworks
•    Fix Auto Long Beach, co-owned by Richard Fish and Bill Lawrence (new location)
•    Fix Auto Moreno Valley, co-owned by Selvi Rizk and Nathan Comstock and previously known as Collision Center of Moreno Valley
•    Fix Auto Sacramento, owned by Dave Picton and previously known as G&R Body and Paint

Fix Auto Long Beach owner Richard Fish, who also owns two other Fix Auto franchises, said his affiliation with the Fix Auto organization aided in his ability to successfully open his latest franchise location.

“My partner, Bill Lawrence, and I have been hearing for a number of years about the need for an additional quality repair facility in the Long Beach area, so when the opportunity presented itself, we decided to pursue it,” he said. “Given my strong recent experiences as a Fix Auto franchisee, we knew that starting up as a Fix Auto location would help ensure our success. The strengths we gain from a recognized brand, strong industry relations and a collective commitment to excellence, coupled with a comprehensive suite of reporting tools and corporate support, combine to provide valuable resources that are critical to our success. Franchising with Fix Auto was an easy decision for us to make, and we definitely see some early results already coming to fruition.”  

Added Fix Auto President and COO Paul Gange, “It’s satisfying to achieve the 50th franchise mark. We continue to be selective with our franchise expansion, so it’s not really about the numbers, but we definitely want to celebrate this milestone. The accomplishment is a testament to the model and the type of operators that make up our organization. We look forward to continuing our expansion with outstanding businesses that are dedicated to operational excellence while exceeding customer expectations.”
