One of the leaders of repair companies is CPR Cell Phone Repairs, which was created in 2004. Since beginning to franchise in 2007, they have opened over 530 locations all over the world. Over 475 of these locations are in the United States, with nearly two dozen more in Canada. This reveals the possible power behind the brand and business model.
One factor behind this unique business is the increasing prices of tech devices, which is prompting people to choose repair over replacement.

CPR Cell Phone Repairs offers cell phone repair services via walk-in, drop-off, or mail-in. The brand also sells smartphones, music players, gaming systems, and other related technologies.
