Ziebart Franchise Model Overview

Ziebart franchises sell and install vehicle protection and appearance services: rustproofing and undercoating, detailing and protective coatings, scratch repair, window tint and paint protection film, spray-on bedliners and a wide range of truck and electronic accessories. Franchisees must offer every category, so the shop runs as a multi-service installation center serving both retail drivers and car dealers. The investment is mid-six figures in a leased shop, with much of it going to a décor and signage package, an equipment package and opening inventory bought from the franchisor, plus a minimum product purchase requirement. Royalty is a percentage of gross sales, with a minimum royalty starting in year four, and a capped marketing fund. Owners are not required to manage the shop personally, but a trained and certified technician must be on site during all business hours. The brand dates to 1962; the U.S. system is mature and slightly contracting, and transfers jumped to 22 in 2025.

Comfortable managing certified installers and technicians across multiple service bays
