First Utah Quick Quack Car Wash cuts ribbon, breaks records

r By Travis KimballrQuick Quack Car Wash officially opened for business in August and Clark Caras, the executive director of the Spanish Fork Salem Area Chamber of Commerce, remarked that it might have been the most highly attended ribbon cutting event he had ever seen. But that wasn’t the only record that would fall before the week of its opening was over.rAs a result of a grand opening promotion to give away free car washes that lasted through Aug. 26, this new Quick Quack Car Wash in Spanish Fork set a company-wide record by washing 1,380 cars in one single day. Not bad for the first Quick Quack Car Wash in Utah and the newest in the chain of 25 locations in California, Colorado and Texas.

“We could not be more pleased by the response from the great people of Spanish Fork,” said Travis Kimball, partner and chief marketing officer of Quick Quack Car Wash. “If our ribbon cutting and grand opening are any indication, this will be the beginning of a long love affair between Quick Quack and the state of Utah.”

Quick Quack plans to open 10 additional Utah County locations over the next 18 months and will open a location as the result of an acquisition in Layton next month. The second Utah County location in Orem is scheduled to open in November. Each location will open with Quick Quack’s signature 10 Days of Free Car Washes, and each location will be looking to set new records.

In addition to washing cars quickly, Quick Quack is best known for a big yellow duck named Quackals, free vacuums, water recycling, unlimited car wash memberships and being heavily involved in the communities in which they operate. For more information, visit DontDriveDirty.com.
