Anybody here ever deal with them?
http://www.Overdriveauto.com
They have stores in Barrie, Newmarket and Whitby. I'm wondering what you guys think of the store/brand.
I'm considering buying into the franchise and opening a store in Belleville.
Why Belleville?
I live in Brighton and won't go back to the GTA. Belleville is only 50k people, but there is a string of towns all along the 401. Port Hope, Cobourg, Brighton, Trenton, Belleville, Kingston, Napanee, etc...
My plan would be to open a shop that deals with generic parts, which is what Overdrive does. I would also on the side become a dealer for Focus Sport, Euro Sport, maybe some other marques like Mustang stuff, etc. And hopefully have at least 1 bay for installs/tuning.
Overdrive seems to be an aggressive upstart. I notice that they get into sponsoring people to get their name out there, etc.
