What Is PremierGarage?

PremierGarage is a franchise in the Construction & Home Improvement category that provides the design, sale, and installation of garage organizing units, storage accessories, and garage flooring. The operational model is primarily mobile, with franchisees using a motor vehicle with franchisor-specified signage to perform installation work at customer sites. It serves both residential and commercial customers (a mix of B2C and B2B), and its core service bundle centers on garage organization systems and on-site installation capability.

PremierGarage Franchise: Pros and Cons

Strong territory protection (score 61, in the top quarter for Construction and Home Improvement) offers greater exclusivity and reduced local competition, but the franchisor’s 16 reacquired outlets (top 5%) suggest unusually high past franchisee exits and operator turnover that you should investigate before investing.

Pros

Territory Protection Score of 61 is well above typical for Construction & Home Improvement (top quarter), giving you stronger protection against the franchisor or other channels opening nearby.
The $19,950 initial franchise fee is well below typical for this sector, leaving you with more cash on hand for build-out and early operating costs.
The franchisor covers living expenses during initial training - an uncommon perk in this sector - which reduces your personal cash burn while you get up to speed.

Cons

Company-owned units: 0 (bottom 5%) - the franchisor doesn’t operate any locations itself, which limits their ability to test changes or maintain firsthand operational insight for operators.
Item 7 fee minimum and maximum are $74,950 (well above typical, top quarter/top 10%) - that high Item 7 fee raises the fixed upfront cost you must pay to the franchisor before opening.
Reacquired outlets: 16 (top 5%) - an unusually high number of reacquisitions, which indicates past franchisees have exited the system and suggests operator turnover you should investigate further.

Territory Protection

61/100
Good

PremierGarage grants a protected territory defined by USPS ZIP codes (approximately 100,000 households) under its System and Marks, with site-specific showroom approval and relocation requiring franchisor consent. The franchisor retains rights to sell via e-commerce/alternative channels and to develop company-owned operations nearby without a franchisee right of first refusal.

Training & Support

60/100
NORMAL

The brand provides a robust 81-hour training curriculum designed to prepare two franchisee-designated staff for launch. The program includes on-site launch support for operational readiness; travel and lodging expenses are covered by the franchisor, and on-site support is subject to additional fees.

Franchisee Stability

53/100
NORMAL

PremierGarage receives a Normal Stability Score. Three-year turnover of 8.54% sits above the typical Construction & Home Improvement franchise (around 6.5%) and below the high end of the industry range (about 12.5%), based on 41 industry peers; the lowest-churn 10% of Construction & Home Improvement franchises report rates near 0.8%. Out of 42 total exits, ceased operations dominated with 33, alongside 8 terminations, 1 non-renewal, and no franchisor buybacks; these exits occurred against about 161 franchised outlets in the most recent year.

The predominance of ceased operations points toward location-level economics: many closures likely reflect underperforming sites or operator decisions rather than systematic franchisor enforcement; prospective buyers should probe unit-level sales performance, local market factors, pricing and cost structure, and how the brand responds to struggling locations. For prospective franchisees, retention is in line with industry peers.

Unit Growth Analysis

Unit Growth Chart

The franchise is in accelerating decline: after a modest rise from 164 units in 2022 to 169 in 2023 (+3.0%), unit counts fell to 161 in 2024 (-4.7%) and then dropped sharply to 146 in 2025 (-9.3%). From the 2023 peak of 169 to 2025 the system lost 23 units (-13.6%), and overall from 2022 to 2025 it contracted by 18 units (-11.0%). That trajectory signals weakening franchise health and rising attrition/closures-investors should view growth as contracting and demand root-cause analysis (unit economics, support, market exit) before committing capital.

Franchise vs Corporate Performance: Franchised single-territory outlets reported average annual gross sales of 314,012 for 2024; multiple-territory figures shown are franchisee totals (1,462,780 average per multi-territory franchisee) and are not directly comparable on a per-territory basis.
Performance Variability Analysis: There is substantial variability among single territories (median 217,586 vs mean 314,012) with reported single-territory sales ranging from 7,476 to 1,551,066, indicating a right-skewed distribution where a minority of territories drive up the average.
Data Scope and Limitations: The figures are unaudited, based on franchisee self-reports for 45 single-territory and 26 multiple-territory franchisees in 2024, and the Item 19 does not provide expense or consolidated 'all territories' metrics, which limits benchmarking and forecasting.
