Second PIRTEK Center Opens in Seattle!
Rockledge, FL - PIRTEK Woodinville opened its doors on January 10th, providing an ETA 1 Hour On-Site Hose Service to the Seattle area. PIRTEK Woodinville is now the second Center serving the Seattle area. PIRTEK Woodinville will be spearheaded by PIRTEK's newest franchise owner and Bellevue resident, Chad Harkness.
Harkness is no stranger to franchise operations and sales with over 30 years combined experience at A & G Leasing, A Budget Rent a Car Franchise, and both Avis & Budget Rent a Car Corporate operations, in Colorado and Seattle. A native of Salt Lake City, Utah, he enjoys the operations and profitability aspects of the business as well as the challenges of opening a center in a new area.
"The Seattle market is already a successful one for PIRTEK and we are poised to serve the diverse industries we are surrounded by in the Eastside and North Puget Sound Areas," explains Chad Harkness, PIRTEK franchise owner.
The new PIRTEK center is conveniently located in at 16140 Woodinville-Redmond Road NE, Ste 8, Woodinville WA 98072, near its industrial, construction and manufacturing customers. It is also just 30 minutes from the nearby town of Everett.
The 3200 square foot center features a 2100 ft warehouse stock full of the more common hose and fittings as well as the hard to find Metric fittings and adapters. Harkness is proud of his team, which includes 3 factory trained mobile sales and service technicians (MSSTs), an operations manager and 3 mobile service vans. This second location follows the opening of PIRTEK Kent in 2006.
Rockledge, Florida-based PIRTEK is the world's leading service provider of ETA 1 Hour On-Site Hose Replacement. PIRTEK offers a 24 hour, 7 day service that serves almost every facet of industry including construction, manufacturing, transportation, agriculture and engineering among others. When an equipment breakdown occurs, it often results in costly delays in time and labor before the proper replacement hose is located and installed but PIRTEK vans carry the component parts necessary to manufacture hose assemblies on site. Hose and fittings can also be purchased over-the-counter at PIRTEK's national network of service centers that serve as home bases to its mobile fleet. There are nearly 40 PIRTEK service centers nationwide and over 170 PIRTEK mobile service vans serving major metropolitan markets throughout the country.
