Color Glo International is a global leader in mobile restoration and repair services. Founded in 1975 and formally incorporated in Minnesota, USA, the company is headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.

Color Glo stands out through its turnkey franchise model, offering exclusive territories, low startup costs, and the flexibility of mobile or home-based operations.
Here's what you would need to invest if you were to start this franchise. These costs are provided by the franchisor in the Franchise Disclosure Document.
Color Glo provides a comprehensive training program to franchisees as part of their franchise agreement, with the following components:
Color Glo provides its franchisees with an Exclusive Territory, ensuring a defined operational area typically covering a population of 300,000 to 500,000 people. Although no specific business premises are required, the franchise must operate from within this Exclusive Territory.
The franchise agreement prohibits other franchisees or the franchisor from selling proprietary products or authorizing competing services within the territory, offering a level of territorial protection to the franchisee.
However, this exclusivity is not absolute. Color Glo reserves the right to sell Craftsman’s Choice® and CGI Boutique Services Products® in any area, including the franchisee’s territory, without offering compensation for such sales.
