May 27, 2009 // Franchising.com // Rob Goggins, vice president of franchise development for Great Clips, Inc., announced the Grand Opening of the company's newest franchised salon in the Muldoon Glenn Target Center, in Anchorage, Alaska.

"This manager-run salon sits in the largest—950,000 square foot—shopping center in Alaska," said Goggins. "The 85-acre development is anchored by Target and, of course, Great Clips. The demographics of the area are well suited for our value-priced, no appointment necessary service.

"Our franchise owners open to a $55-billion hair-care industry. With more than $700 million in total system-wide sales, Great Clips is the industry leader. And we're in a growing market. People get their hair cut every four to five weeks, and our same-store sales have increased consistently for several years."
