Transaction includes locations in Memphis, Little Rock and Northwest Arkansas
SCOTTSDALE, AZ / ACCESS Newswire / October 7, 2026 / Amplify Capital Group ("Amplify"), an M&A and capital advisory firm specializing in the car wash industry, announced that it served as sell-side advisor to Glide Xpress Car Wash ("Glide Xpress") in the sale of 13 locations serving Memphis, Tennessee; Little Rock, Arkansas; and Northwest Arkansas to Club Car Wash.
The transaction closed in October 2026. Amplify worked closely with the Glide Xpress ownership group, engaging qualified buyers and guiding the parties through a complex transaction.
"The ownership group at Glide Xpress built a business with a meaningful presence across several attractive markets," said Chris Jenks, CEO and Partner of Amplify Capital Group. "We're grateful for the trust they placed in us to represent them in this transaction. Our team focused on understanding their objectives, engaging qualified buyers and guiding the process through a complex transition."
Glide Xpress operates car wash locations across Tennessee and Arkansas, serving customers with express wash services.
As Glide Xpress considered the transition, maintaining continuity for customers and employees was an important consideration. The ownership group believes Club Car Wash's operating approach is a complementary fit for the acquired locations and appreciates the efforts of the employees, customers, advisors and others who helped bring the transaction to a successful close.
The Glide Xpress ownership group also expressed its appreciation to Amplify for its guidance throughout the process and for helping navigate the many considerations involved in the sale.
Glide Xpress will continue to own and operate its locations in Springfield, Missouri, providing the services and customer experience its guests have come to expect.
