Colors On Parade Opens 2 New Franchises in Northwest Arkansas

The new franchises will offer EcoSmart mobile automotive paint and dent repair services in the Northwest Arkansas area.

Colors on Parade, an eco-friendly mobile automotive paint and dent repair services franchise, announces the opening of its newest franchise units in Northwest Arkansas. Servicing the Northwest Arkansas/Southwest Missouri region, the new franchises are owned and operated by Billy Routt and Jon Norton.  

Working alongside area developers Daniel Billingsley and Josh Leaton, Routt and Norton will bring EcoSmart mobile automotive paint and dent repair services to their communities at an affordable price. In addition, the new franchises will provide car dealerships with the highest quality reconditioning services for their inventory with a quick turnaround time, the company said. 

With a robust background working in the automobile industry, Routt brings more than 20 years of collision and restoration experience to Colors on Parade. Prior to joining Colors, he worked as a paint rep for nine years, where he gained an appreciation for matching colors and found a special talent in matching metallic and pearl paints. He has just completed the new Franchisee Certification program and is successfully running his new business in Southwest Missouri. 

Norton has more than 10 years of auto industry experience with a strong foundation in mobile reconditioning, airplane restoration and body shop repairs. When asked about his new career, he said, “I’m confident in the promising future that Colors can provide me and I’m excited about the great pay, flexible schedule and the ability to grow my skills on a day-to-day basis.” He has just completed the new Franchisee Certification program and is in Northwest Arkansas growing his Colors on Parade business. 

“As we continue to grow Colors on Parade with more locations across the country, it is a goal to make convenient, affordable mobile paint and dent repair services accessible for our customers,” said Jeff Cox, president of Colors on Parade. “A key component to doing so is our group of passionate franchisees who provide a high-level of expertise and professionalism to our customers. We are excited to welcome Billy and Jon to the team and look forward to their success with Colors on Parade!” 

With more than 30 years of experience and over 250 operating franchises across the U.S., Colors on Parade is consistently ranked by Entrepreneur magazine as one of the nation’s top automotive franchise systems. The company’s extensive training and certification process allows new franchisees to provide customer services safely onsite while using an exclusive process.
