Kickstart Management is rebranding three express car wash locations in Frankfort and Shelbyville, Kentucky. Formerly operating as Fast Freddy’s, these locations have officially joined the growing Southern Shine Car Wash family, which also serves customers in Mt. Sterling, Paris, and Lebanon, Kentucky.
“We’re excited to welcome these three washes into the Southern Shine family,” said Sheehan Lake, president of Kickstart Management. “Our team is committed to continually improving every location we operate. We’ve already implemented several enhancements designed to increase customer satisfaction and provide a faster, cleaner, and more enjoyable wash experience.”
The addition of these three locations marks another milestone in Southern Shine’s continued growth. Customers can expect the same commitment to quality, value, and exceptional service that has become the hallmark of the Southern Shine brand.
As part of its continued expansion strategy, Kickstart Management is actively pursuing additional acquisition opportunities throughout Kentucky and neighboring states. The company is interested in purchasing both single-site and multi-site express tunnel car wash operations and welcomes conversations with owners who may be considering retirement, succession planning, recapitalization, or an outright sale.
“Our acquisition philosophy is straightforward,” Lake said. “We believe successful transactions create value for both parties. We move efficiently, operate with transparency, and work to preserve the legacy that owners have built while positioning each location for long-term success.”
Business owners, brokers, lenders, and industry professionals with acquisition opportunities are encouraged to contact Rick Green via email r.green@ksmngt.com or phone 502-514-3607 to discuss potential transactions. Visit website https://ksmngt.com/.
