Get A Grip Franchising, LLC Named Top New Franchise: New Mexico Company Ranks #33 On Entrepreneur®’s Ranking

Albuquerque, NM (I-Newswire) March 15, 2011 - Get A Grip, Inc., a family-owned, national franchise company with headquarters in Albuquerque, is pleased to announce that it has debuted at #33 on Entrepreneur®’s Franchise 500® Top New Franchises list of franchise companies in the United States and Canada. In addition, the company ranks #87 among low-cost franchise, and #393 on the general Franchise 500® list, up from #467 in previous rankings.

“We’re thrilled to come in so highly, especially since we started offering franchises relatively recently. It’s gratifying to be recognized for our patented resurfacing products and techniques, low start up costs and low franchise fee. The general trend toward resurfacing rather than replacement helped our ranking, too,” says Sharon Dillard, CEO of Get A Grip, Inc. “As the economy improves, resurfacing still makes more sense than replacement, so we think we’ll have an even better year in 2011.”

Get A Grip franchises offer a home-based opportunity with low start up costs and franchise fee. The company’s network of 35 franchises and dealers in 17 states around the country resurfaces laminate or cultured marble countertops with our Eurostone® design, repairs cracked fiberglass bathtubs, scratched or stained porcelain bathtubs, tile showers and enclosures.
