Swimming Pool Franchise Leader Grows Peach State Footprint with Retired Air Force Veteran at the Helm of New Store

February 23, 2021 // Franchising.com // CLEARWATER, Fla. - Pinch A Penny Pool Patio Spa, the nation’s largest swimming pool retail, service, and repair franchise, announced today the opening of its newest franchised location in Brunswick, Georgia. Located at 5639 Altama Ave., the new store marks the brand’s first location in the Brunswick area. Looking ahead, the brand is preparing for additional new stores inTexas and Louisiana this summer.

Owned and operated by wife-and-husband team Lori and Ted Karst, Pinch A Penny of Brunswick is a family business and an investment in a legacy for their son Jacob and daughter-in-law Haley, who will help run operations for the new store. A first-time franchisee and veteran of the U.S. Air Force, Ted retired as chief master sergeant with the 125th Fighter Wing after 36 years of service. He and Lori were looking for a family-centered business that would offer the training, support and emphasis on teamwork that Ted excelled with in the military.

“When my wife and I began considering franchise ownership with Pinch A Penny, we were immediately impressed with the passion the team has for the business,” said Ted Karst, owner of Pinch A Penny Brunswick. “They looked me in the eye when they said how much they love the company, which says a lot about their honesty and integrity. They also understand the sacrifices that veterans like me have made in service to our country and the knowledge that service has given us. With the support and proven business model of Pinch A Penny behind us, I know my family and I can open a business that will be very successful.”

That proven business model comes with more than 45 years of industry expertise and a reputation as the leading franchise in the swimming pool category. Named one of the top 50 recession-proof franchises by leading market research firm Franchise Business Review, Pinch A Penny is an exceptional business offering multiple revenue streams. By providing a variety of services through its proprietary retail products, pool cleanings and several other backyard services like renovations, leak detection and power washing, Pinch A Penny helps pool owners keep their pools properly maintained and fully operational to create the safest water environments possible for family fun.

“While new swimming pool demand has grown every year for the past 50 years, it is now growing at record levels. This has created even more opportunity for Pinch A Penny, as our customer base continues to grow from these new pool builds and related backyard services for years to come,” said Michael Arrowsmith, Chief Development Officer of Pinch A Penny. “Franchisees like Lori and Ted Karst are taking hold of this opportunity to help their neighbors while enjoying the support and resources we provide to run their business.”
