The provider of on-site on-site and retail hydraulic and industrial hose services reported that it awarded a record-breaking 61 total franchise units.

By the end of this past year, PIRTEK expanded its footprint to 35 states along with Puerto Rico. In the United States, PIRTEK now has more than 175 locations. Globally, the company has more than 500 franchise locations in 24 countries.
“2025 was a defining year for PIRTEK,” said Kim Gubera, President & CEO of PIRTEK USA and PIRTEK Canada. “The record number of openings and the caliber of franchisees joining our system reflect the strength of our franchise model, the dedication of our team, and the growing demand for essential, B2B service businesses that perform in any economic environment.”
During the fourth quarter of 2025, PIRTEK launched 16 new locations, with 9 franchise units awarded to 6 franchise owners, including two military veterans. The quarter also gave witness to the sale of PIRTEK’s first Rhode Island location and the opening of its first New Hampshire location.
The latest locations opened in Q4 include Fairfax, Virginia; Manchester, New Hampshire; Savannah, Georgia; Coral Springs, Florida; Cupertino, California; and Mobile, Alabama.
