What qualifies me to become an Appell Striping business owner?
We want you to know, our ideal owner isn't limited to line striping, but someone ready to build and grow their own business. Now, you will have to meet the financial qualifications but we don't limit ourselves when it comes to who we choose to work with, which means our franchise partners come from all walks of life, with all sorts of interesting backgrounds.
