In his mid-thirties, Kevin Taylor is one of the youngest Maaco shop owners in the country.

When Taylor purchased the shop at just 27, he had a visions for where he wanted the shop to go, and he was determined to combat the common Maaco stereotypes. As the owner of Maaco Houston, in the first two years of ownership, Taylor doubled sales from $500,000 to $1 million by focusing on tracking estimates versus retention and a shift in focus on ARO, car count and fleet operations.

Today, Maaco Houston is a multi-million dollar operation and Taylor remains one of the most successful Maaco operators in the country.
