National franchise operation RNR Tire Express had a banner year in 2020 and is poised for an even better 2021. The Tampa. Fla.-based company has agreements in place to open nearly 50 more franchise outlets before the end of the year. Larry Sutton, president of RNR Tire Express, wants 500 franchise locations by 2027. It’s an ambitious target, but well within reach, he says.

RNR Tire Express had a banner year in 2020. During the year, 12 RNR Tire Express franchise stores opened. And there's more to come, as the Tampa, Fla.-based company has signed development agreements to open more than 47 additional stores.
