Values & History
Founded in 2005, Garage Living has been revolutionizing garages across North America for nearly two decades. The brand's core values are rooted in transforming lives by delivering high-quality, North American-made products and an exceptional customer experience from start to finish. They emphasize creating durable, beautiful spaces rather than offering mass-market commodities, while fostering a strong culture of teamwork, collaboration, and mutual respect among corporate teams, local franchisees, and installers.
Industry Performance
The broader home improvement and storage organization sector is one of the fastest-growing industries in North America, driven by homeowners' desires to maximize usable space and increase property value. As consumers increasingly view their homes as long-term investments, they are shifting away from quick-fix or temporary organization solutions in favor of premium, high-quality, and custom-designed renovations. This sustained demand for luxury home upgrades and home improvement services creates a strong environment for entrepreneurs entering the market.
Training & Support
Franchisees benefit from a comprehensive, custom-designed support system to help them run their business efficiently. Garage Living provides up to three weeks of pre-opening training at their corporate center, which includes both classroom learning and hands-on exercises, followed by up to three days of on-site training near their grand opening. In addition to a confidential operations manual, owners receive continuous marketing assistance, showroom layout guidance, access to the best tools and proprietary CRM and CAD technology, and ongoing business planning support.
Ideal Candidate & Qualifications
Garage Living is looking for a select group of candidates who are passionate about design, construction, and delivering exceptional customer service. While prior construction or remodeling experience is not strictly required, a good understanding of business management and strong communication skills are highly valued. Ideal candidates should be willing to be directly involved in the daily operations of their business and have a strong work ethic.
Purchasing a Franchise
The full range to open a Garage Living franchise can be anywhere between $221k-305k. They typically look for around $250k net worth and $100k liquid capital to get started.
