Texas-based car wash operator ZIPS Car Wash has made two single site acquisitions from Heroes Car Wash in Holly Springs, North Carolina, and from Rocket Wash Express in Goldsboro, NC, the company said.

ZIPS now operates 32 locations across North Carolina, becoming one of the largest, privately-held express car wash operators in the state. ZIPS now operates more than 225 express car washes across 22 states.

The ZIPS acquisition of Heroes Car Wash marks the second transaction with the principal Heroes group.

In 2021, ZIPS acquired from the group Carolina Car Wash in Greensboro, NC, expanding ZIPS site count in greater Winston Salem to seven locations.

This is the company's first transaction with Rocket Wash Express, a brand based out of North Carolina, that continues to operate a handful of locations across the state.
Both acquisitions were finalized during the last week of December.

ZIPS Car Wash, headquartered in Plano, Texas, is the largest privately held car wash operator nationwide. ZIPS operates more than 225 locations across 22 states.
