Pearle Vision announced it has signed licensing agreements converting 13 of its neighborhood eye care centers from company-owned entities to licensees, according to a company press release.
This is the result of the company’s 2013 expansion plans to relicense 34 company-owned centers in 10 states, the release said.
"It’s a testament to Pearle’s 50-year legacy that we’ve received tremendous interest from both new licensees who want to join our growing brand and existing licensees who want to expand with additional eye care centers,” Srinivas Kumar, senior vice president and general manager, Pearle Vision, said in the release.
Pearle Vision is seeking to grow its national footprint and began 2013 with an aggressive relicensing effort in the U.S. The company currently has 611 centers located throughout North America.
