Store Will Install Automotive Window Tint Packages in Less Than an Hour

June 22, 2023 // Franchising.com // Orland Park, IL - Moran Family of Brands announced its newest franchise location with a Turbo Tint store in Cary, North Carolina.

The newest Turbo Tint franchise opened on Tuesday, June 20 and is located at 3300 Ten-Ten Road in Cary, a suburb of Raleigh. It is the sixth location in the country and the first in North Carolina.

Turbo Tint specializes in automotive and architectural window tinting solutions. Under the brand’s concept, customers can purchase a tint package and schedule an appointment online. When they arrive for service on their vehicle, they will only need to select their desired shade of window film. The entire installation process is completed in one hour or less.

In addition to automotive and architectural window tinting solutions, Turbo Tint locations also offers ceramic coating and paint protection services. Window tint options are available for residential or commercial buildings with the benefits of lower energy costs, excellent UV protection and increased comfort by preventing exposure to sunlight throughout the year. Paint protection services apply a thin protective film to maintain the condition of a vehicle’s exterior from damage due to scratches, chips, fading and abrasion from rocks, pebbles, and debris from the road.

The new Turbo Tint store will be owned by Chris Laverdure, who is originally from the Pacific Northwest before moving to Cary a year ago. Laverdure started as an automotive technician with Ferrari before moving on to an extensive career in sales. He worked for several tech companies, including Amazon and ADP. He decided to leave the corporate world to pursue his passion in the automotive industry.

The store in Cary features two automotive tint bays, one paint protection bay and a customer lounge. Laverdure has hired a center manager and a tint installer and plans on adding two additional employees to the staff.

“We feel the demographics of the Cary market are an ideal fit for Turbo Tint customers,” said Laverdure. “We are located near Research Triangle Park with a number of tech and pharmaceutical workers in the area. This is a growing market with higher income individuals who are interested in adding premium window tinting services to protect and enhance their vehicles or homes.”

All Turbo Tint locations feature a modern and spacious customer waiting area featuring oversized leather chairs, flatscreen TVs and computer workstations with free Wi-Fi in front of a cozy fireplace setting. While waiting for their tint installation, customers can enjoy complimentary premium coffee, beer, wine, soft drinks and snacks.

“Chris is a forward-thinking individual with a diverse background in sales, tech companies, business ownership and a passion for the automotive industry,” said Peter Baldine, President of Moran Family of Brands. “We know he will combine this knowledge to deliver a fantastic and efficient experience to customers in our new Cary location.”

The new Turbo Tint store in Cary will operate Tuesday through Thursday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
