K & N Mobile Franchises, Inc. Franchise Overview

About K & N Mobile Franchises, Inc.

K & N Electric, Inc., the parent company of K & N Mobile Franchises, has developed a proprietary software system for the mobile parts stores and licenses the franchise company to use it. This system practically eliminates the need for paperwork. The "Just-in-Time" inventory and supply chain management system automates the ordering process so that when parts are sold, they are automatically deducted from the mobile parts store's inventory. At the end of the day, the franchisee simply uploads the information to a computer and sends it directly to K & N Electric, which automatically ships back the parts to replenish the inventory.

Franchise History
