THE HISTORY OF GRIZZLY

Grizzly Auto Detailing was born out of a simple but powerful mission: to offer top-quality, convenient, and reliable auto detailing services for car owners who truly care about their vehicle’s appearance. From the beginning, we set out to not just clean cars but to treat them with the care and respect they deserve, with a level of attention to detail that is second to none.


Founded by Joshua and Sarah Hagen, Grizzly Auto Detailing started in their garage while Joshua was stationed at Fort Drum, NY. Joshua’s passion for automobiles went beyond just making them look clean—he treated each car almost like a living being. His ability to restore a car to a condition that made it look better than it did when it first rolled off the assembly line earned him a reputation that quickly grew in the local community.


What began as a small operation in a garage soon grew into something much bigger. From those humble beginnings, Grizzly Auto Detailing has expanded into a nationwide presence, with franchise locations stretching from the East Coast to the West Coast, from Washington D.C. to San Francisco. Joshua’s dream has always been to offer others the chance to own their own business and join the Grizzly family, and today, we are fulfilling that dream by providing aspiring entrepreneurs with the opportunity to become a part of the Grizzly legacy.


As we continue to grow and expand, Grizzly Auto Detailing remains committed to excellence, customer satisfaction, and providing top-tier services to car owners across the country. Through franchising, we are excited to offer like-minded individuals the chance to be a part of a successful and ever-growing business.
