For the past 43 years, Tint World® Automotive Styling Centers™ has steadily expanded, establishing itself as one of the largest automotive accessories franchises in the United States. Specializing in a variety of services such as vehicle wraps, protective films, car and truck accessories, wheels and tires, detailing, ceramic coating, audio and security systems, and more, Tint World has seen tremendous growth since its inception.
Now, the Florida-based franchise is preparing to unveil a brand-new headquarters, a testament to the company’s impressive success over the years.
“We’ve simply outgrown our old headquarters, so this move is something we’ve been planning for a while,” said CEO Charles Bonfiglio.
The new office is currently under construction and is expected to open in June or July. Located in Delray Beach, Florida, along Federal Highway, the new facility is strategically situated near a cluster of high-end car dealerships—a location carefully selected by Bonfiglio himself.
“This new space is exactly what we need,” Bonfiglio shared. “It’s a two-story building, with our Tint World shop on the first floor and the corporate offices on the second. There will be a showroom, an area for car work, and even a boutique selling everything from hats and shirts to car accessories and detailing products.”
The 14,000-square-foot building will also feature a finished rooftop area, complete with a tiki bar, lounge, and firepit.
“It’s going to be an enjoyable space for our team and a fantastic venue for prospective franchisees to experience everything Tint World has to offer,” Bonfiglio added.
In line with Tint World’s signature style, the entire building will showcase high-tech lucite lighting, an all-black open-joist ceiling, video displays behind the sales counter, and a consumer cafe featuring a coffee and cappuccino bar. High-quality stereo speakers will play lively music throughout the building, and branded advertisements will be on display. A single elevator bank will take guests and employees to the second-floor welcome area and conference room, which can accommodate 20 or more people.
“We designed the space to provide everyone with a window seat,” Bonfiglio said. “It’s open and collaborative, which is key for fostering creativity.”
Founded in Tamarac, Florida, in 1982, Tint World initially focused on window tinting for vehicles, expanding its offerings over time to include homes, offices, and commercial buildings. As demand grew, Tint World opened additional locations throughout South Florida.
Bonfiglio, who joined the brand in 2006 after his time with a major international auto repair franchise, restructured the company into a franchise system and founded Tint World LLC. He also built a state-of-the-art franchise headquarters and training center in Boca Raton, Florida, which was last updated in 2014.
Today, Tint World boasts over 250 locations across the U.S. and Canada, with plans to expand to 600 locations in North America. Bonfiglio believes the new headquarters will play a significant role in that growth.
“This is a dream come true for me,” said Bonfiglio. “I’ve always wanted to create a unique hub where our franchisees can gather, collaborate on new ideas, and strategize for the future. This new headquarters is the realization of that vision, and I’m thrilled to see it come to life.”
