Owning and operating VIOC service centers is different from running other retail businesses such as fast food or convenience stores.
Shorter Hours
We have shorter hours of operation, typically 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. We are closed most major holidays.
Fewer Employees
We have fewer employees per location — typically 10 full-and part-time jobs per center.
Easier Development
Our sites require less real estate than a typical retail concept, with only minimal space needed for parking.
Less Risk
Limited inventory and restricted access to cash result in less shrinkage and theft. There are no perishable products to manage.
Limited Menu
We offer a limited range of services, which simplifies the business model.
Less Volatility
Our business is less susceptible to swings in the economy than retailers that rely on consumers’ discretionary income. We also experience less seasonal volatility than other retail models.
