## Story

Previously serving as Chief Development Officer for FullSpeed Automotive, Stilwell has played a significant role helping grow unit count.

As President of Franchising, Stilwell will oversee all aspects of FullSpeed Automotive’s franchise side of the business, including the entire operations department, development, training, purchasing, and licensing for Kwik Kar, and more.

“My goals are to work closely with our franchise community to understand their challenges and opportunities to help meet their success goals,” said Stilwell. “As I step into this role, I look forward to working on more state-of-the-art technology enhancements that will help reduce labor and make operations more efficient – all with the guest experience in mind.”

This news comes on the heels of the recent appointment of Rob Lynch as CEO earlier this year. Lynch has brought a fresh, revitalizing approach to the business, and implemented several enhancements to the executive team, including elevating Stilwell to President of Franchising. With 35 years of franchise industry experience, Stilwell brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to FullSpeed.

“FullSpeed Automotive is building a team of leaders to elevate and fuel growth,” said Lynch.
