Tommy's Express Franchise Model Overview
Tommy's Express locations are high-throughput express tunnel car washes: customers stay in the car, pay at a gate or are recognized by license plate, and ride a conveyor through a 62- or 90-foot tunnel, with free vacuums outside. The TommyClub monthly membership platform drives recurring revenue, and a flight-deck control room and automated pay stations keep labor low. This is a heavy-asset business. The franchisor's affiliate sells the entire building, equipment and construction-management package, and total cost runs from the mid-single-digit millions well into eight figures before land, so most sites are financed and the franchisor's capital arm seeds some locations through investor vehicles counted as franchised units. Royalty is a modest four percent of gross sales. The owner may run the wash through a trained on-site manager. The system has grown by roughly 40 units a year for three years. A buyer signs a new 20-year agreement, pays a transfer fee, and may have to refurbish the site.
