Club Car Wash is one of the largest and fastest-growing express car wash operators in the Central United States. Founded in 2006 in Columbia, Missouri, as the family-owned Tiger Express Car Wash, the company steadily expanded throughout Missouri before rebranding as Club Car Wash in 2019. That same year, the company partnered with Wildcat Capital Management to support its continued growth, and in 2020, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce joined the company as an investor, further increasing the brand's visibility as it continued its regional expansion.
Club Car Wash has since experienced substantial growth through new development and strategic acquisitions, reaching its 100th location in 2022, 200th in 2024, and 250th in 2025. Today, the company operates 250+ locations across a growing multi-state footprint, with operations throughout Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Iowa, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Arkansas, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Texas, Minnesota, Mississippi, Colorado and other expanding markets. The company continues to grow through both ground-up development and acquisitions of regional car wash operators, and in 2026 expanded into the Chicago market. This continued development demonstrates the company's ability to successfully enter new markets while building density throughout its existing footprint.
A key component of Club Car Wash's business model is its recurring-revenue Unlimited Wash Membership program, which has grown to approximately one million members and allows customers to wash at any Club Car Wash location. The company offers multiple wash packages along with complimentary vacuums, microfiber towels, compressed air tools and dedicated express member lanes. Club Car Wash has also invested in its digital platform, launching a mobile app in 2025 that allows customers to manage memberships, access promotions and participate in its rewards program. In addition, the company has maintained a partnership with Children's Miracle Network Hospitals since 2021, supporting local children's hospitals through its weekly "$14 Tuesday" promotion. With 20 years of operating history, 250+ locations and approximately one million members, Club Car Wash has evolved from a single family-owned operation into a major regional express car wash platform with a proven record of sustained expansion.
