Two New ColorTyme Rent-To-Own Franchisees Tap Shreveport And Gainesville Markets

RTO Headquarters:

Mike and Lisa Gavidia opened their first ColorTyme franchise in Gainesville, Florida, on September 15, and James Stephens opened his Shreveport, Louisiana, franchise on October 1. While both markets couldn’t be more different - Gainesville is a college town and Shreveport is primarily rural - both new franchisees are excited about their future.

A 20-year rent-to-own veteran, Mike Gavidia and his wife, Lisa, did some careful investigation before deciding on opening their own store with ColorTyme. Gavidia credits ColorTyme franchisee Mike Houseworth for helping them achieve their professional goals. The Gainesville store will specialize in high-end items, such as flat-screen televisions and computers to help them service their town’s demographic of students.
