Fresh Coat Painters, the rapidly growing 190-plus-unit painting franchise, is targeting several key markets in the U.S. as part of its robust expansion strategy. With a unique blend of residential and commercial painting services, Fresh Coat is poised to meet growing demand in metro areas experiencing economic and housing booms as it prepares to reach the 200-territory mark next year.
“We’re on track to open our 200th territory next year, but I’m also hopeful that we will be able to reach 225 in 2025,” said Brand President Lisa Hudson. “The housing market continues to be highly competitive resulting in homeowners caring for and renovating the spaces they already have rather than seeking new investments. This is just another boost to Fresh Coat’s already flexible model that allows owners to capture multiple revenue streams, but it positions us well to continue growing through the end of next year.”
While there are opportunities for growth with Fresh Coat nationwide, Hudson highlighted a few key markets she hopes to develop in the coming months.
Indianapolis stands out as a prime target for Fresh Coat’s expansion, particularly due to its continuous population growth and thriving industries.
"Indianapolis had experienced continuous growth with many families relocating to the market. We have a lot of people coming to the market for different reasons, whether it’s tech, sports or other booming sectors,” Hudson said. “The housing market here is following suit, and as families build or move into new homes, we’re seeing an increasing need for painting services."
One of the city’s most appealing aspects is the high average income in areas like Hamilton County, providing franchisees with a solid customer base that embraces small businesses.
"This is a perfect opportunity for someone to establish a strong business in a community that loves to support local entrepreneurs,” said Hudson. “The larger Indianapolis market can support four to five new territories, providing ample opportunity for owners to grow in the area.”
St. Louis, Kansas City and Oklahoma City are other key targets for Fresh Coat, thanks to their stable housing market and central location.
"These midwestern cities are a great area with both new and existing residential and commercial opportunities," Hudson said. "While we’ve seen tremendous growth in Florida, Texas and California, the Midwest has a lot of potential that remains untapped."
While joining a market where Fresh Coat has already established itself does have its perks, Hudson notes that some entrepreneurs quite enjoy the opportunity to introduce a brand to their market.
"It’s nice to be the first in a territory because you can come in, introduce yourself and really make a name for yourself in the community," she said. “You still have the brand recognition, but you’re in total control of your reputation locally. This sense of ownership and local engagement can lead to long-term success as residents welcome and support new businesses.”
Like Indianapolis, Hudson projects these markets could support four to five new territories each.
On the West Coast, San Diego offers another kind of market potential. The city’s high cost of living and booming real estate market create a strong need for both residential upgrades and commercial maintenance, making it a promising location for new franchise owners. With year-round demand for services, San Diego franchisees can establish a steady stream of business from homeowners and commercial clients alike.
With an established presence in California, San Diego Fresh Coat owners will be joining a group of successful franchise owners with whom they can collaborate and grow alongside while maintaining the safety and security of their own protected territory. In San Diego specifically, Fresh Coat is looking to add 5 new territories.
Beyond growth in franchise units, Fresh Coat’s expansion has a direct impact on local job creation. Each new franchise brings employment opportunities for painters, project managers and administrative staff, contributing to the local economy.
Hudson emphasizes that Fresh Coat’s blend of residential and commercial services helps create a versatile business model that thrives in both high-growth and stable markets.
Fresh Coat strives to add many new franchise owners annually, and with protected territories ensuring franchisees don’t overlap, Fresh Coat's franchise owners can grow their businesses with confidence, knowing their local market is theirs to serve.
As Fresh Coat continues its expansion across the U.S., the brand remains committed to helping franchisees succeed through robust support systems, strategic market selection and a strong community of owners. Whether in bustling metro areas like Indianapolis and St. Louis or growing markets like San Diego, Fresh Coat is setting the stage for franchise success and local economic impact.
