Company named among Top 500 brands in the country

SPANISH FORK, Utah—Despite competing with highly acclaimed brands across the nation, Five Star Painting has made the coveted Franchise Times’ Next 300 Franchise Systems ranking for 2012. This year’s research drilled down to detail the Top 500 concepts, ranked by worldwide sales and unit counts.
