Colors on Parade, the world’s largest eco-friendly mobile automotive reconditioning franchise, is pleased to announce the opening of its newest franchise unit in West Harrison, NY. Servicing the New Jersey, New York and Connecticut Tri-State area, the new franchise is owned and operated by Michael Grimaldi.

Working alongside Area Developers, Mark Mega and David Lee, Michael will bring EcoSmart mobile automotive paint repair services to his community at an affordable price. In addition, the new franchise will provide car dealerships with the highest quality reconditioning services for their inventory with a quick turnaround time.

For the majority of Michael’s professional life, he has worked in real estate sales and property management. In 2014, Mark Mega and David Lee, close friends of Michael, introduced him to the franchise opportunity and he began working as an employee doing mainly touch up and scratch removal work. After 6 years of doing that, Michael decided it was time to take the next step and recently completed the Total Car Franchising Corporation paint repair training and certification program at the company’s headquarters in Conway, SC. He is now back in West Harrison, NY getting his new Colors on Parade business underway.

When asked about his new career, Michael said, “I like having the flexibility to operate in a way that works for my lifestyle and priorities while also being able to maximize my earning power. I enjoy working hands on and being someone who can provide solutions to problems.”

“As we continue to grow Colors on Parade with more locations across the country, it is a goal to make convenient, affordable mobile paint and dent repair services accessible for our customers,” said Jeff Cox, President of Total Car Franchising Corporation. “A key component to doing so is our group of passionate franchisees who provide a high-level of expertise and professionalism to our customers. We are excited to welcome Michael Grimaldi to the team and look forward to his success with Colors on Parade!”

With more than 30 years of experience and over 250 operating franchises across the U.S., Total Car Franchising Corporation is consistently ranked by Entrepreneur magazine as one of the nation’s top automotive franchise systems. The company’s extensive training and certification process allows new franchisees to provide customer services safely onsite while using an exclusive process.

Franchise opportunities still remain available throughout the United States. More information can be found at www.franchising.colorsonparade.com.
