MIAMI-BASED EL CAR WASH RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE FASTEST-GROWING PRIVATE COMPANIES IN AMERICA BY INC. MAGAZINE

MIAMI, Aug. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — El Car Wash, the largest and fastest-growing car wash company in Florida, announced that it has ranked No. 632 on Inc. Magazine’s 2024 Inc. 5000 list.

El Car Wash’s recognition follows the company’s multi-year track record of remarkable growth and execution. Between 2020 and 2023, El Car Wash has pursued a balance of new developments and strategic M&A resulting in a doubling of revenue every year for the past three years, transforming from a local business into a large, industry leader. Today, El Car Wash has a leading brand spanning throughout Florida and into its second core market, Michigan. The company is slated to open 25+ locations this year, has over 1,000 employees and anticipates operating 80+ stores in the near future.

“We are excited to be recognized as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America and expect the pace and quality of our growth to accelerate in the years ahead as a result of the industry-leading team and capabilities we have built over the years,” said Justin Landau and Geoff Karas, co-founders of El Car Wash. “We are extremely proud of how growth has translated into life changing career opportunities for our team members and El Car Wash into a pillar within the communities where we operate.”

“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc. 5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as editor-in-chief. “To see all of the intriguing and surprising ways that companies are transforming sectors, from health care and AI to apparel and pet food, is fascinating for me as a journalist and storyteller. Congratulations to this year’s honorees, as well, for growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to inflation to changes in the workforce.”
