CENTENNIAL, Colo. — The International Car Wash Group (ICWG) has announced its expansion into the middle Tennessee/Nashville market with the acquisition of two premier sites from Wash N’ Roll, according to a press release.
The two companies are also entering into a deal to develop and expand in Nashville and surrounding areas, the release continued.
“Wash N’ Roll represents everything we seek in a potential acquisition and partner,” said Jeff Maize, vice president of acquisitions, ICWG. “They have a talented team with whom we share a vision about how to approach the growth and expansion of the carwash business.”
“ICWG is the perfect partner for us,” explained Steve Griffith, principal owner of Wash N’ Roll. “We appreciate the creativity they showed in structuring a relationship that both works well for us and upholds the values we have sought to bring to life here in Tennessee. Our chemistry was strong from the very first meeting, and we are excited about what we can accomplish together.”
Over the next six months, the two acquired Wash N’ Roll sites will be re-branded as part of Car Wash USA Express, one of three brands in the ICWG family, the release noted.
ICWG is actively expanding its U.S. leadership through a regional, multi-brand strategy, the release added.
Laser-focused on ensuring its brands realize their full potential, ICWG invests in employee retention, asset enhancement and marketing support/brand development, the release stated.
