Express Wash Concepts Furthers Flying Ace Express Expansion with Acquisition of Three Zips Car Wash Locations

COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Express Wash Concepts (EWC) today announced the continued expansion of its Flying Ace Express Car Wash brand through the acquisition of three Zips Car Wash locations. This strategic move increases EWC's express wash portfolio to 118 sites across six states, operating under five award-winning brands. More than 25 new locations are slated to break ground or open by the end of 2025— including three additional Flying Ace locations.

The acquisition, effective May 15, 2025, marks a significant milestone for EWC as it accelerates growth of the Flying Ace brand. The acquired sites— located at 5274 Dixie Highway in Fairfield, 11346 Princeton Pike in Springdale, and 8301 Colerain Avenue in Cincinnati— are currently closed for site improvements and rebranding. Express Wash Concepts will invest more than $5 million into these locations to transform the sites and deliver the elevated wash experience that customers have come to expect from EWC and Flying Ace. All three locations are scheduled to celebrate their grand openings on August 1, 2025.

"At our core, EWC will continue to grow through greenfield development; however, as the market evolves, we will seize acquisition opportunities to efficiently expand our brands, better serve our customers, and create new growth opportunities for our team," said John Roush, Founder and CEO of Express Wash Concepts. "These Zips sites presented a unique opportunity, and we're excited to bring our unmatched operations, cutting-edge equipment and technology, and best-in-class customer experience to even more communities."

Homegrown and locally operated, Flying Ace Express currently operates 18 express wash locations across Greater Dayton and Richmond, Indiana. The brand has been repeatedly recognized for its superior wash quality and customer service, earning accolades such as Best of Dayton and Best of Butler County by the Dayton Daily News, and #1 Car Wash by Dayton.com.
