PIRTEK Opens Fifth Location in Chicago as Mobile-Only

PIRTEK has added a mobile-only franchise to its four existing Chicago-area locations. The new location, PIRTEK Gurnee, operates under the company’s Tier 2 mobile-only model, which allows the shop to open at a lower cost and keep inventory in a small warehouse or 16storage facility while leasing two Mobile Service Vehicles. PIRTEK’s CEO Glenn Duncan said, “PIRTEK Gurnee should perform well. It’s positioned to draw in new business from the surrounding industrial sector and to have its vehicles nearer to existing customers.” The welcome addition to the company’s network of U.S. locations will likely lead to a gain in customers for the only franchise providing hydraulic and industrial hose replacement sales and services in the United States.
