When the time is right, you can choose to leave your current career—making the exciting transition to full-time Sport Clips Entrepreneur!

Why Sport Clips Franchise?

When you invest in a franchise concept, the number of stores opened each year is important, but store closures are even more important! Sport Clips is an industry leader with over 1,450 stores open and a 98% continuity rate, an honor based on five years of real data, during which time only five Sport Clips stores have closed in the entire country. A truly impressive figure in the industry. What does this mean to you? Stability. Confidence. Freedom.

In the past five years, Sport Clips has experienced an annual same store sales growth of 7-10%. We have a responsible growth plan, adding 150-170 locations each year while maintaining high standards for sites and franchisees.

Sport Clips was the first in the market and is still #1!

“When we had the chance to meet everyone at the Sport Clips’ Discovery Day we knew that this was for us. The level of commitment from the franchisor to support the success of franchisees seemed to be second to none. In anything that we chose to do, we wanted to make sure that we remained “Client-Focused” and “Quality-Driven”. Everyone that we have worked with at Sport Clips has had this same mission and it’s unwavering… Now, five years later, we are currently working on opening our sixth Sport Clips and are more excited than ever about what the future holds!” -Tim Scott, Sport Clips Franchisee in Nebraska
