Benefit from Joining an Experienced Franchisor
PIRTEK is the world leader in onsite hose replacement, operating in 12 countries. There are over 300 Hose Service Centers and more than 1,300 Mobile Service Units worldwide. Potential customers are everywhere and include companies in a wide range of industries including construction, manufacturing, transportation, landscaping, marine, and many more.
"At one time these companies were using local hose shops and in some cases making their own hose assemblies," explains Wally Davie, PIRTEK Co-Founder. "We decided to put quality hose and fittings into a van, and start providing an on-site hose replacement service." Customers quickly came to appreciate the convenience and 25 years later, PIRTEK is proud of its growth and worldwide recognition:
- 39 centers in U.S. and more than 170 domestic mobile service vans.
- Six franchise owners in the U.S. with multiple centers.
- A ranking of 337 on the 2009 Franchise 500.
- Recognition as "Franchise of the Year" on multiple occasions by the British Franchise Association.

Saving Businesses Time and Money
During tough economic times, everyone wants to save money. PIRTEK has enjoyed the strength and growth that comes from providing a necessary money-saving service to its customers. PIRTEK plays a huge and much needed role in keeping businesses up and running and as the only onsite provider of hydraulic hose repair, now is a great time to join this stable and successful franchise. Ray Rettinger, a franchisee from Orlando, Florida commented, "What makes PIRTEK so unique is the fact that we offer emergency service to our customers. If a hydraulic hose is broken, it can mean days of lost work. We prevent this for our customers, saving them a lot of money." He explained, "It costs many of our customers $1,000 a day to lease equipment. Plus, they must hire someone to work the equipment. If it breaks down, they are losing a lot of time and money. PIRTEK has the fastest arrival rate in the industry and that's why our customers choose us!"
A Fantastic Business to Own
"People sometimes tell me that our franchise is not really 'glamorous' like many other franchise concepts," Gwyn O'Kane, Vice President of Franchise Development for PIRTEK USA said. "My answer is that a nice restaurant is glamorous to the consumer or customer. However, it may not be glamorous to the business owner. A glamorous business is one that leads to the 'lifestyle' that the business owner desires." PIRTEK offers entrepreneurs a fantastic quality of life by providing a valuable service to businesses in their community while they have the ability to build their own team of employees and enjoy quality time with their families.
A Comprehensive Business Package
PIRTEK USA's mission is to enable motivated entrepreneurs to accomplish the dream of owning their own business by using a system that has proven it self to be successful around the world. Ideal candidates might have strong sales, business, and/or people-management skills and if you see yourself as a franchise entrepreneur then PIRTEK will provide you with the "system".
