Pavement marking firm opens Bentonville franchise

Pavement marking company 1-800-Striper of Bentonville recently opened as a franchise of Rochester, N.Y.-based 1-800-Striper. The new franchise operates in Northwest Arkansas.

1-800-Striper offers pavement marking services for parking lots, sports courts, and interior spaces. It also provides custom layouts for parking lots and paved areas, layout and line painting services for sports courts, interior markings for parking garages and factories, and temporary services for special events and construction sites.

Brandon and Lisa Lewis own the new Bentonville franchise.

“We are excited to own and operate 1-800-Striper of Bentonville,” they said. “We love living in NWA and are glad to provide a service to local businesses that helps beautify their properties, making them a place that’s customer-friendly and welcoming.”

The couple actively works in the business here and has two additional staff members. The company plans to hire more staff as projects increase. It operates one truck and plans to add another later this year.

Brandon Lewis said the initial investment to begin a new franchise ranges from $205,000 to $325,000. He said the area franchise is on the lower end of the range. Luke Menear founded 1-800-Striper in 1999.
