Five Star Soars Past 750 Markets, 850 is on the Horizon

CHATTANOOGA, TN – In January, there was a promise to make this year (2017) the most exciting in company history. When it comes to micro markets at Five Star, there has certainly been no lack of excitement. Entering the final quarter of the calendar year Five Star is growing its retail micro market line of business at the fastest pace it has ever experienced. Over 150 markets have been added in the first nine months of the year.

“The opening of our 750^th micro market checks off another box on the list of milestones we have for our micro market business,” commented Mark Stephanos, Vice President of Micro Markets. “Our entire team deserves a great deal of credit for the execution of the scalable, organic growth model we have in place. We are on pace to bring more than 250 markets into our system in this year, and we expect to be operating market number 850 by January.”

Giving Back to Customers

If celebrating accomplishments is great, doing it with and for the folks who got you there, is better. During the month of October, as a part of a market promotion, Five Star is giving away ten (10) 55” LED Smart TVs to their loyal customer base.
