Green Shine isn’t your regular car wash. In fact, Green Shine eliminates one of the most costly and wasteful resources used in car washes today—water! Larkin Hoffman drafted Green Shine’s Franchise Disclosure Document, allowing the company to offer waterless car washes in much of the U.S.

History and Growth

The concept was originally born in Guatemala, before its founder, Juan Sagastume, moved the headquarters to Miami, Florida. Currently, Green Shine has 4 company-owned locations in Florida, 1 franchisee-owned location in Georgia, and several in the Middle East.

Franchise Structuring

The company sees significant growth potential, especially in key markets in the U.S.  Green Shine is also offering franchises internationally.
