Of the Pop-A-Lock franchisees in the United States, 15 percent are owned by veterans.  In addition, Entrepreneur Magazine has consistently ranked the franchise in the "Top 500 Franchises" each year since 2007 and was listed among the "Top 50 Franchises for Veterans" by USA Today.

"At Pop-A-Lock, we value and honor the men and women who have made the commitment to serve our country and put their lives on the line," said Don Marks, CEO of Pop-A-Lock.
