ORANGE, CALIF. - Wellington Franchising Systems, LLC, the area developer for Sport Clips, a national sports-themed, hair care franchise for men and boys, where you can get a haircut, receive the MVP treatment, and watch sports on TV, is opening its first two stores in Orange County, California in early December. The first store, slated to open is located in Huntington Beach at the Newland Center, 19710 Beach Boulevard. The other store is located in Irvine at the Woodbury Town Center, 6274 Irvine Boulevard.
Created with the sports fan in mind, Sport Clips’ clients can tune into the football game on the waiting room-big screen TV and continue watching the game at their stylist’s station. Focused on providing the highest level of service, Sport Clips offers men and boys the MVP Treatment. With the MVP Treatment clients can walk into Sport Clips, get a precision haircut, massaging shampoo, steamed towel, and a relaxing shoulder and neck massage, all at a reasonable price. Fully equipped for the sports enthusiast, Clients are surrounded by sports-themed décor including jerseys, pennants, lockers and sports memorabilia available for purchase.
“In all my years in the retail industry, I have never witnessed such excitement over a retail concept,” said Gregory A. Fisher, managing member of Wellington Franchising Systems and a 20-year retail industry veteran. “With the hair salon industry focusing primarily on women and barbershops closing all across the country at record rates, no one has focused on the hair-care needs of men – which are 50 percent of our population! At Sport Clips men, young and old alike, can get a high quality haircut in a comfortable and entertaining environment while watching sports. As we always say, ‘Sport Clips is where guys win!’”
Entrepreneur Magazine rated Sport Clips among the 100 fastest growing franchises in the country and has attracted the attention of Sports Illustrated and CNBC. Sports Clip is also a primary sponsor at the Daytona International Speedway, Indianapolis Raceway Park and California Speedway. “Sport Clips has created a concept so strong it has continued to double in size nearly every year since it began in 1995,” said Fisher. The Georgetown, TX-based company is now quickly approaching its 400th store nationwide.
Orange-based Wellington Franchising Systems is responsible for recruiting and training new franchisees as well as locating sites throughout the Southern California counties of Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino. The area development agreement calls for a minimum of 125 new stores to be opened in the area. The company looks for 1,000 to 1,500 square feet locations in upscale areas.
Founded in 1995 by franchise veteran Gordon Logan and headquartered in Georgetown, TX, the privately held Sport Clips, Inc., is a sports-themed hair care franchise for men and boys with more than 360 stores in 32 states. Sport Clips is the Official Haircutter of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and offers preferential pricing to all veterans.
