Why radiators?
You don't know anything about cars? That's OK!
You won't be installing radiators. You will be selling brand new
radiators in boxes to repair shops and do-it-yourselfers. You have
the biggest selection of radiators in the country at the most
competitive prices.
How big is
1-800-Radiator?
1-800-RADIATOR first opened its doors over 25
years ago. Today we have over 245 locations nationwide that are on
track to sell $125 million in radiators and a/c condensers. We have
a limited number of territories left for sale and ready for market
in the United States.
What is
1-800-Radiator?
We are the largest distributor of automotive
radiators with nearly 20% market share in the $1.5 billion dollar
radiator market. You don't need any auto experience. Only new parts
are sold with no repair or installation involved.
Are there any existing locations for sale with
established cash flow?
For a larger investment, there are a limited
number of existing locations for sale. Your entrepreneurial spirit
will make them operate at their full potential. Additionally, we
currently have customers in areas across the country without
existing franchisees.
Will there be competition from other
similar franchises?
We are the only radiator franchise company on the
planet, so you have absolutely no competition with other radiator
franchises. 1-800-Radiator is truly unique; it's a niche franchise
with great potential. We are also expanding into other automotive
cooling and heating products which will provide additional growth
opportunity within your protected customer base.
